Limited edition of 500 numbered copies on translucent blue coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Smiles Like A Shark is an album by the British trip hop duo Mulu. It is the only album ever released by the band from Liverpool. The two members that made Mulu are producer Alan Edmunds and singer Laura Campbell. Before forming Mulu, Edmunds had worked on remixes for various artists including Utah Saints, Fluke, Björk, Heaven 17, Elbow, The Kills, Moloko, Mellow, Spandau Ballet, OMD, and Dame Shirley Bassey. Smiles Like A Shark received critical acclaim for it's innovative production and the duo's distinctive musical style, making it a notable release in the late '90s alternative scene. Despite it's niche appeal, the album has garnered a dedicated following, appreciated for it's bold experimentation and emotional depth. The album sparked three singles: "Filmstar", "Pussycat" and "Desire". The single "Pussycat" was named Record of the Week on Mark and Lard's BBC Radio One show, and it reached #50 on the UK Singles Chart.
