Gomez is living proof that perseverance and consistency are qualities to be proud of; they have ridden out changes in fads and styles around them to maintain their popularity and critical standing.
Gomez beat heavy competition from Pulp’s ‘“This Is Hardcore’Hardcore”, The Verve‘s ‘“Urban Hymns’Hymns”, and Massive Attack‘s ‘“Mezzanine’ Mezzanine” to win the 1998 Mercury Music Prize
Their most recent, and most successful album yet, How We Operate, followed in May 2006. (A retrospective collection of singles, rarities, and unreleased tracks, Five Men in a Hut: Singles 1998-2004, was released by EMI later that year.)
The five members of Gomez – Ben Ottewell (vocals, guitar), Tom Gray (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Paul Blackburn (bass, guitar), Olly Peacock (drums
