Defined by bandmember Andy Partridge as the “eclectric” counterpart to 1999’s Apple Venus Volume 1, it consists of rock-based material largely written between 1994 and 1996. Wasp Star reached number 40 on the UK Albums Chart. In 2002, the group released an instrumental version of the album entitled Waspstrumental.
