Biscuits
Biscuits is an EP from Living Colour, released on 16 July 1991 through Epic. It gathers live recordings and previously unreleased tracks, and it sits between the band's second album, Time's Up (1990), and their third, Stain (1993). The band's music is rooted in funk metal and heavy metal.
For fans, the main interest is its place in the line-up story: this is the last Living Colour release to feature bassist Muzz Skillings. The Japanese edition from Sony Music Japan carries nine extra tracks not found on the international pressings, which turns it into more of a compilation there. It is a handy stopgap for anyone who wants to hear the band's live side and some rarities from the period before the line-up changed.
