Sanity Stomp is a double studio album by British rock artist Kevin Coyne which was released in 1980 by Virgin Records. The first disc was recorded with The Ruts, the second with his usual musicians.
Of this album, Coyne himself said:
I was quite ill when I made that record, as a matter of fact; I was quite mad, basically. That's why it's called Sanity Stomp.... That's a record I made when I was clinically ninety-five per cent nuts, and the themes are rather odd, but somehow it comes out as sounding all right.[1]
Reception
Writing for AllMusic, Dave Thompson said:
"If Bursting Bubbles saw Kevin Coyne pursue the joys of anti-production to its logical conclusion, Sanity Stomp -- his second new album in less than a year -- caught him furiously flinging himself back into the fray, at least in part.... few albums have been so aptly titled.[2]
