Spilt Milk is the second and last studio album by American rock band Jellyfish, released on February 9, 1993 on Charisma Records. It was recorded after the departure of bassist Chris Manning and lead guitarist Jason Falkner. It was not commercially successful, peaking at No. 164 on the Billboard 200. Recording took several months due to the album's complicated arrangements

left in a toy shop and making splendid use of every plaything at their disposal. If Spilt Milk has a flaw (beyond its drab afterthought of a cover), it's that the album sometimes seems too big for its own good, with every nook and cranny filled with some overdubbed bit of business, occasionally making it hard to hear the songs for the baroque layers of production

Released February 9, 1993. Spilt Milk Tracklist. Though not considered to be a concept album, Spilt Milk is pulled together by a connecting theme of the corrosiveness of mass Christianity. Every song on the album makes reference to Christian practices, values, beliefs and traditions – references sometimes as small as lyrics mentioning Sunday school, doomsday, or baptism, or sometimes as large as to place Messianic idolatry, toxic televangelism, and hypocritical Christian wealth prejudice at the center of some song’s structures and themes

Album · 1993 · 12 Songs. And they managed something even more detailed and inspiring. With Spilt Milk, the duo of Sturmer and keyboardist Roger Manning used the additional members strategically to make a studio album that was in every way a studio album. The dense vocal harmonies, psychedelia, and consistently shifting rhythms and textures were clearly inspired by The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Badfinger, Electric Light Orchestra, and XTC. Where the debut album had been content with joyous pop songs, Spilt Milk demands complexity

That album was 1993's Spilt Milk, a record that seamlessly blended Manning's penchant for the lush vocal harmonies and detailed pop composition of bands like Queen and XTC with Sturmer's quick-witted, sardonic lyrical sensibility. The closest modern point of reference would probably be Fu. s Aim and Ignite, with all the wide-eyed optimism replaced with wry observational humor. Jellyfish had seemingly everything going for them on Spilt Milk, but unfortunately, the album was simply released in the wrong place at the wrong time. In an era where a new subgenre cropped up seemingly every other week, the music press had little interest in a band that seemingly only rehashed established styles, and the notoriously press-shy Sturmer had little interest in promoting the album to media outlets.

Split Milk" is a masterpiece, because it has every ingredient of what good music is. Let me give seven points why this album is a jackpot. 1. First, the songs are written with great melodies, and the excellent lyrics have a wit, and carry an imagery that can only come from born songwriters. Listen to songs especially like "The Ghost At Number One", " New Mistake", or any song for that matter.
