All Set is the fifth studio album by English <a href="Pop_punk" class="mw-redirect" title="Pop punk">pop punk</a> band <a href="Buzzcocks" title="Buzzcocks">Buzzcocks</a>. After standardising their line-up of vocalists and guitarists <a href="Pete_Shelley" title="Pete Shelley">Pete Shelley</a> and <a href="Steve_Diggle" title="Steve Diggle">Steve Diggle</a>, bassist <a href="Tony_Barber_(bassist)" title="Tony Barber (bassist)">Tony Barber</a>, and drummer Phil Barker for the band's previous album <a href="Trade_Test_Transmissions" title="Trade Test Transmissions">Trade Test Transmissions</a> (1993), the band's first record since their reunion in 1989, the band toured relentlessly which inspired the band–especially Shelley–to create a new album. Hiring longtime punk rock producer Neill King to produce and engineer All Set, the band recorded in <a href="Fantasy_Studios" title="Fantasy Studios">Fantasy Studios</a>, <a href="Berkeley%2C_California" title="Berkeley, California">Berkeley</a>, <a href="California" title="California">California</a>, a studio where then-huge pop punk bands like <a href="Green_Day" title="Green Day">Green Day</a>, to whom Buzzcocks had been a big influence, had recently recorded music engineered by King.

The album is a departure from the band's earlier material, retaining a pop punk style but adding regular unusual arrangements and instruments in many songs, with varying songs including a <a href="Hammond_organ" title="Hammond organ">Hammond organ</a>, quirky rhythms, strings and <a href="Synths" class="mw-redirect" title="Synths">synths</a>. Changes are especially evident in the album's three songs written by Diggle, who had written and recorded three further songs with the band for the album but which were accidentally left off the album when it was handed for publishing, although the unreleased songs were released as <a href="Bonus_track" class="mw-redirect" title="Bonus track">bonus tracks</a> in the Japanese release. As such, All Set leans heavily onto Shelley's material. Barker's drumming style was said to show more flair, whilst the record is said to "reflect their maturity and approach to relationships that the early singles just couldn't."

The album was released in May 1996 by <a href="I.R.S._Records" title="I.R.S. Records">I.R.S. Records</a> in most markets, a label the band signed to in order for their music to be better distributed. However, the label closed two months after the album's release, making All Set the label's last release, and abruptly ending the album's promotion. As such, it was not a commercial success. However, it was a critical success, with critics praising the manic and melodic juxtaposition, memorability of its songs and vitality. Music journalist <a href="Colin_Larkin_(writer)" class="mw-redirect" title="Colin Larkin (writer)">Colin Larkin</a> said the album "confirmed the Buzzcocks' latter-day renaissance." A remastered version of All Set was released in the box set Classic Album Series in 2014.

After their prolific career in the late 1970s, <a href="Punk_rock" title="Punk rock">punk rock</a>/<a href="Pop_punk" class="mw-redirect" title="Pop punk">pop punk</a> band the Buzzocks reformed in 1989 for a tour of the United States, although by 1990 the reunion had become permanent. The group's rhythm section, <a href="Steve_Garvey_(musician)" title="Steve Garvey (musician)">Steve Garvey</a> (bass) and <a href="John_Maher_(Buzzcocks_drummer)" title="John Maher (Buzzcocks drummer)">John Maher</a> (drums) soon left the band, both of whom were content to continue their other lines of work,<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> and after a brief stint with former <a href="The_Smiths" title="The Smiths">Smiths</a> drummer <a href="Mike_Joyce_(musician)" title="Mike Joyce (musician)">Mike Joyce</a>, the group's standardised line up became vocalists and guitarists <a href="Pete_Shelley" title="Pete Shelley">Pete Shelley</a> and <a href="Steve_Diggle" title="Steve Diggle">Steve Diggle</a>, bassist <a href="Tony_Barber_(bassist)" title="Tony Barber (bassist)">Tony Barber</a>, and drummer Phil Barker.<a href="#cite_note-allmusicbio-4">[4]</a> The band recorded their first album in 14 years, <a href="Trade_Test_Transmissions" title="Trade Test Transmissions">Trade Test Transmissions</a> (1993), a return to the band's original <a href="Pop_punk" class="mw-redirect" title="Pop punk">pop punk</a> sound and a departure from the experimental music Shelly and Diggle had recorded away from the Buzzcocks. Although it was a critical success, it was not a commercial one despite the huge surge in popularity for pop punk at the same time,<a href="#cite_note-pitchfork-5">[5]</a> but regardless, the band toured relentlessly worldwide following its release.<a href="#cite_note-allmusicbio-4">[4]</a>

Touring the world playing their durable old songs had put the group−especially Pete Shelley−in the same framework for new songs.<a href="#cite_note-courant-6">[6]</a> As such, they began work on the new album All Set in 1995, and hired longtime English punk rock producer Neill King to produce the album.<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> According to music journalist Ned Raggett, "hooking up with Neill King as producer for All Set was an amusing turn on the part of the Buzzcocks, given that King had engineered <a href="Dookie" title="Dookie">Dookie</a> [a few years earlier], the breakthrough album from open Buzzcocks worshippers <a href="Green_Day" title="Green Day">Green Day</a>."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> Buzzcocks felt that "a little acknowledgement back" to Green Day was in order, even going so far as to record All Set at <a href="Fantasy_Studios" title="Fantasy Studios">Fantasy Studios</a> in Green Day's hometown of <a href="Berkeley%2C_California" title="Berkeley, California">Berkeley</a>, <a href="California" title="California">California</a>.<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> Nonetheless, the Buzzcocks were "far from trying to capture the <a href="MTV" title="MTV">MTV</a> audience with a variation on "<a href="Basket_Case_(song)" title="Basket Case (song)">Basket Case</a>".<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> King not only produced All Set but engineered it at the same studio, and played piano on the album. King's acclaimed producing and engineering work on the album lead to one critic noting that "things haven't sounded this crisp and clear for the band even since the late '70s."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> Frank Rinello is credited in the album sleeve as "assisting" the recording, whilst Jim Push is credited for "additional keyboards."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a>

The final album was mostly written by Shelley, including Your Love and Give it to Me who Shelley had recorded and released in 1988 as Zip, although three songs were written by Diggle. When asked why he didn't contribute as many songs on All Set as he had on the band's previous releases, Diggle explained that the band had actually recorded six of his contributions, but the songs were delivered too late to the band's record label <a href="I.R.S._Records" title="I.R.S. Records">I.R.S. Records</a>. Diggle explained "they pressed up the album thinking that was it and when the album came out I said, 'what the fuck's happened here? You missed three songs?' The three missing songs were soon released a month later as bonus tracks on the Japanese edition, since the band had a different record label deal in Japan, where they were signed to Real Cool Records instead. In the words of Ronnie Dannelley of Pop Culture Press, the "humorous incident" would have sent "collectors scrambling to find the Japanese pressing."<a href="#cite_note-earcandy-7">[7]</a>

"This recording is Fun with a capital "F". Bouncy. And there are some melodic gems among the more manic cuts: "Back With You" and "Hold Me Close" standing out as Buzzcocks classics. "Totally From The Heart" has Pete at his frantic best and "Without You" is nothing like the <a href="Harry_Nilsson" title="Harry Nilsson">Harry Nilsson</a> classic <a href="Without_You_(Badfinger_song)" title="Without You (Badfinger song)">of the same name</a>."

Although All Set retains the band's traditional <a href="Pop_punk" class="mw-redirect" title="Pop punk">pop punk</a> style, the band experiment "here and there" on the album with atypical instruments and arrangements. Ned Raggett of <a href="Allmusic" class="mw-redirect" title="Allmusic">Allmusic</a> described the experiments as "hints of trying to breathe once again beyond the basic formula."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> The inclusion of a <a href="Hammond_organ" title="Hammond organ">Hammond organ</a> provides "a nice extra touch here and there," such as on the lower-key groove of "Hold Me Close," one of Shelley's tenderer love songs, while Diggle "pulls off a rock-of-the-gods epic start" for "Playing for Time."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> The concluding two songs have both been noted for having "something to them in particular"−"Pariah" has a quirky rhythm crunch to it à la "Sixteen," while Diggle's "Back With You" starts off with an <a href="Acoustic_guitar" title="Acoustic guitar">acoustic guitar</a> and turns into a <a href="String_(music)" title="String (music)">string</a>-<a href="Synthesiser" class="mw-redirect" title="Synthesiser">synth</a>-swept declaration of love.<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> Nonetheless, besides the unusual touches, Raggett said its "generally effective business as usual"<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> Ali Sinclair of Consumable Online said that although listeners might assume the band to have mellowed out, they "still sound like <a href="The_Beatles" title="The Beatles">the Beatles</a> overdosed on <a href="Caffeine" title="Caffeine">caffeine</a> - or more."<a href="#cite_note-westnet-8">[8]</a>

On All Set, the band's drummer Phil Barker was noted as "in particular showing more individual flashes and flair than before," whilst Shelley and Diggle "throw in a couple of almost mainstream guitar solos along the way, but otherwise are as dedicated as always to the virtues of high-volume, brisk poppiness."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> Some songs on All Set seem to borrow whole <a href="Guitar_lick" class="mw-redirect" title="Guitar lick">guitar licks</a> from older songs by the band, such as the European siren lick from "<a href="Harmony_in_My_Head" title="Harmony in My Head">Harmony in My Head</a>" that resurfaces on "Point of No Return", but, in the words of Roger Catlin, "these aren't middle-age musicians trying to pass for callow youth," as some of the songs on the album "reflect their maturity and approach to relationships that the early singles just couldn't."<a href="#cite_note-courant-6">[6]</a> The sound of the band changes considerably in songs written by Steve Diggle, who according to Catlin "sounds a bit like <a href="Pete_Townshend" title="Pete Townshend">Pete Townshend</a> when he doesn't sound like <a href="Peter_Frampton" title="Peter Frampton">Peter Frampton</a>. (The band in its current incarnation is rounded out by a newcomer rhythm section, which figures.)"<a href="#cite_note-courant-6">[6]</a> <a href="The_New_York_Times" title="The New York Times">The New York Times</a> said that the album contains "sing-along odes to love's confusion in the tradition of older Buzzcocks songs."<a href="#cite_note-nyt-9">[9]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Release_and_promotion">Release and promotion</h2></div>

By the time the album was released, the band's line-up had been their longest lasting so far,<a href="#cite_note-censor-10">[10]</a> and the group had now been around longer since their 1989 reunion than they had when they originally existed in the late 1970s.<a href="#cite_note-earcandy-7">[7]</a> For the release of All Set, the band changed record labels to <a href="I.R.S._Records" title="I.R.S. Records">I.R.S. Records</a>, as the band thought that the two labels they were signed to at the time, Castle Records (for UK distribution) and <a href="Caroline_Records" title="Caroline Records">Caroline Records</a> (for US distribution), were not far reaching enough. When asked about the change of label to I.R.S., Diggle explained that "we thought it would be a better move, you know, better distribution. Some people had problems finding Trade Test."<a href="#cite_note-earcandy-7">[7]</a> All Set was released worldwide in May 1996 by I.R.S. Records, except in Japan where it was released by Real Cool Records instead on 21 June 1996.<a href="#cite_note-discog1-11">[11]</a> In the United Kingdom, it was released on 6 May as a CD and limited edition LP,<a href="#cite_note-discog2-12">[12]</a> whilst in the United States it was released on 14 May. The album title, All Set, comes from an often repeated phrase from an American waitress.<a href="#cite_note-courant-6">[6]</a>

However, the band had only spent two weeks of publicity for the album before I.R.S. Records suddenly closed on 11 July 1996, making All Set the last release on the label.<a href="#cite_note-onam-13">[13]</a> Shelly recalled "we were on tour and all the people we were working with suddenly got the phone call that there's no record company."<a href="#cite_note-earmag2-14">[14]</a> He recalled that "Miles Goldham [<a href="Sic" title="Sic">sic</a>] was trying to buy back his share from <a href="EMI" title="EMI">EMI</a>/IRS, and he had backers in place, but then they decided, oh you can't have the <a href="R.E.M." title="R.E.M.">R.E.M.</a> stuff. As a result of that his backers fell through. So, he just threw his hands up in despair. He was left with no option but to close down the company."<a href="#cite_note-earmag2-14">[14]</a> As such, it left the band without a record label and, as a journalist from Ear Candy Mag recalled it, the album suffered for "a lack of promotion"<a href="#cite_note-earmag2-14">[14]</a> and it was not a commercial success, not appearing in any country's national chart, although steady sales from the supporting tour upheld its popularity. The administration of the label was sudden, as at the time of the release of the album, Diggle had explained in an interview that "we signed for a couple of albums. We'll probably be touring the rest of this year, then a new album next year."<a href="#cite_note-earcandy-7">[7]</a> The folding of I.R.S. Records meant that the band did not release a second album the following year; the band eventually released a new album, <a href="Modern_(Buzzcocks_album)" title="Modern (Buzzcocks album)">Modern</a>, three years after on <a href="Go-Kart_Records" title="Go-Kart Records">Go-Kart Records</a>.<a href="#cite_note-earmag2-14">[14]</a>

Although All Set has never been re-issued or re-released by itself, a remastered version was included as the fifth and final disc in Classic Album Series, a <a href="Box_set" title="Box set">box set</a> released by <a href="Parlophone" title="Parlophone">Parlophone</a> on 20 June 2014 containing five of the band's albums that were deemed to be "classics".<a href="#cite_note-original-15">[15]</a>

The album was released during a popular resurgence for punk rock, with older punk bands reuniting and newer ones receiving international exposure, and All Set has been seen as exemplifying the period. In his review of All Set, Roger Catlin of the <a href="Hartford_Courant" title="Hartford Courant">Hartford Courant</a> proclaimed "what an unusual summer we're having. The <a href="Sex_Pistols" title="Sex Pistols">Sex Pistols</a>, the <a href="Misfits_(band)" title="Misfits (band)">Misfits</a> and <a href="The_Dictators" title="The Dictators">the Dictators</a> are on reunion tours, and there are new albums from <a href="Patti_Smith" title="Patti Smith">Patti Smith</a>, <a href="The_Specials" title="The Specials">the Specials</a> and the Buzzcocks. What year is this exactly?"<a href="#cite_note-courant-6">[6]</a> After Ear Candy Mag pointed out that popular acts such as <a href="Oasis_(band)" title="Oasis (band)">Oasis</a>, <a href="Green_Day" title="Green Day">Green Day</a> and <a href="Rancid_(band)" title="Rancid (band)">Rancid</a> mixed punk rock and pop as was the Buzzcocks style, Diggle said that he thought the revival was "exciting, it brings guitar back. In Britain there's a lot more guitar bands happening."<a href="#cite_note-earcandy-7">[7]</a> When asked whether he felt that "these new groups are stealing the Buzzcocks' thunder for doing what the Buzzcocks were doing 20 years ago," Diggle replied "Well, there's a hint of that, but you think maybe it will develop.

The album was released to a positive reception from music critics. Ned Raggett of <a href="AllMusic" title="AllMusic">AllMusic</a> said "the quartet here sounds like the Buzzcocks, if again essentially the pop-friendlier side of the band."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> He said that "things haven't sounded this crisp and clear for the band even since the late '70s" and said the album was "generally effective business as usual."<a href="#cite_note-allmusic-3">[3]</a> <a href="Robert_Christgau" title="Robert Christgau">Robert Christgau</a> gave the album a three-star honorable mention, signifying "an enjoyable effort consumers attuned to its overriding aesthetic or individual vision may well treasure."<a href="#cite_note-christgau-21">[21]</a> His review of the album quipped "love life much smoother, music summat."<a href="#cite_note-christgau-21">[21]</a> Roger Catlin of <a href="Hartford_Courant" title="Hartford Courant">Hartford Courant</a> was favourable and said that "at any rate, the songs from All Set (a title that comes from the oft-repeated phrase used by American waitresses), won't sound out of place amid the classics when the Buzzcocks headline a show Sunday at Toad's Place in <a href="New_Haven" class="mw-redirect" title="New Haven">New Haven</a>."<a href="#cite_note-courant-6">[6]</a> Ali Sinclair of Consumable Online published a positive review and said the band "sound just as lively as they did back in the mid-seventies.

A journalist from Ear Candy Mag said that All Set was "incredibly strong."<a href="#cite_note-earmag2-14">[14]</a> Ronnie Dannelley of Pop Culture Press called it "a solid follow-up to Trade Test" and said it showed the band "avoiding the <a href="Sophomore_slump" title="Sophomore slump">sophomore slump</a>."<a href="#cite_note-earcandy-7">[7]</a> Whilst interviewing Diggle, a reviewer for San Francisco Bay Area Concerts said he had been listening to All Set and noted "it feels just as vital to me as <a href="Singles_Going_Steady" title="Singles Going Steady">Singles Going Steady</a>" [the band's most acclaimed album].<a href="#cite_note-sfbayarea-23">[23]</a> He described All Set as "part of this larger thing but at the same time too it’s always these individual evolutions."

In his 2012 book The Anarchy Tour, music writer Mick O'Shea said that alongside the band's other post-reunion albums, All Set "served to affirm that Buzzcocks could still appeal to a global audience while still remaining true to their original ideals."<a href="#cite_note-anarchytour-16">[16]</a> It has been said that All Set "reaffirmed Buzzcocks' position as a band deeply loved and revered by a global audience, simultaneously true to their original ideals and open to new ideas."<a href="#cite_note-manchester-24">[24]</a>
