About this deal

Booth said the album was the first since their fifth studio album Laid (1993) that they had strayed from the Verse-chorus-verse structure. Although he doesn’t play any instruments, he’s so life-like that there’s already speculation about his “personality”.

It was promoted with an appearance on Top of the Pops and various festivals across three months in the UK, Spain and Portugal. English Beefcake" and "Getting Away with It (All Messed Up)" were included on the band's third compilation album The Collection (2004). House in the Woods studios; producer credit was split between Brian Eno, guitarist/violinist Saul Davies, KK and the band. On 29 October, Booth announced he would be leaving the band after their current tour engagements, with the band aiming to continue recording.

On 19 June, Dotmusic revealed the album's artwork, which is a computer-generated image that merged all of the members' faces. They had written over 30 tracks for inclusion on their next record; on the opening night, the band played seven of these new songs. In March 2000, the band revealed they had been writing new material and planned to record later in the year, with the aim of releasing an album in January 2001. What Is It Good For" was engineered by Pettit and mixed by him, James and Bascombe at House in the Woods and Whitfield.

It was originally titled We Want Our Money Back, [5] before being re-titled Space, [15] and eventually Pleased to Meet You. Getting Away with It (All Messed Up)" premiered on BBC Radio 1 on 18 May 2001; the band appeared on Later. The UK special edition included the bonus songs "Gaudi" and "What Is It Good For" as 9th and 10th tracks. Getting Away with It (All Messed Up)" was released as a single on 25 June, [29] after being delayed a week from its original release date.

On 6 September, the band announced their departure from Mercury [36] after completing their six-album contract, though they planned to release a compilation and reissue their back catalogue in the future through the label. Eno likened the process to when artists make their debut record: "they're full of enthusiasm and excitement and they know what they're doing and it's a pleasure. Inspired by playing the new songs live, the band decided to gather in a circle and record live-in-the-studio [8] at Ridge Farm Studios in Capel, Surrey with engineer Gary Langan. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 65, based on six reviews.
