Erotica is the third and final studio album by British alternative rock band the Darling Buds,[2][5][6] released in 1992 by Epic Records. The album shares a name with, and a similar cover to, the Madonna album of the same name, which was released two weeks later.[1]

Critical reception[edit]

Trouser Press wrote: "Lewis comes into her own on the aptly named Erotica (also made with producer Street), on which a fine band matures in sound yet still capitalizes on its original strength—namely, brilliant hookcraft."[2]
