Envy

Envy is the debut studio album by American band Eve's Plum. It was released on August 31, 1993, on 550 Records. Before it was released, the debut single, "Blue," was promoted on MTV, appearing on an episode of Beavis and Butthead. However, the single and album failed to chart. The second single, "Die Like Someone," was released in a censored version the following year and also failed to chart. The third single, "I Want It All," became the band's only single to chart, peaking at number 30 on the Modern Rock Chart. However, the album still failed to chart, and promotion for the album was halted. Critical reception Trouser Press wrote: "With nods at dance music, new wave and au courant punk, Envy reflects the musical climate of its year of release, only the hooks are minimal and the quartet sounds as if it’s learning songwriting on the fly." Perfect Sound Forever remarked that the single "Blue" "has one of the best riffs of the whole alt rock era." Track listing All songs written by Eve's Plum, except where noted.
