Performance and Cocktails is the second studio album by Welsh rock band Stereophonics. It was released by V2 on 8 March 1999. The name 'Performance and Cocktails' comes from lyrics in the album's first song, "Roll Up and Shine". The songs were variously recorded at Real World Studios in Bath, Parkgate in Sussex and Rockfield in Monmouth.

Performance And Cocktails ‎(CD, Album). V2, V2. VVR1004492, 70. 449. Stereophonics follow their excellent debut with an album that pushes their sound further, although not always for the better. There's a run in the middle of Performance & Cocktails - tracks 3 through 8 - that is as strong as their debut, Word Gets Around. This is the sound of a bunch of guys from a small Welsh town making music that comes from the heart.

Listening to Performance and Cocktails is similar to sucking on a folded up pair of Gap Khakis. That said, there are two types of rock bands that come from Wales. The first and more exciting faction is the goofy psychedelic pop front with the Super Furry Animals and Gorki's Zygotik Mynci. Those bands slip into their native tongue occasionally, weaving a slight mystical, elven vibe. Pompous stadium rock bands constitute the second bunch of Welsh rock groups. The album continues with an overwhelming assault of whines and chords that neither stick nor particularly rock. The production tastes like Guinness (which, okay, is Irish)- roasted, bitter, and heavy. They also stick with the Britrock standards on the guitar tracks, which invariably sound like distorted lead or acoustic tin.

This album was the soundtrack to a big chunk of my childhood and will always be special to me, plus it gets big nostalgia point. This record is everything you could want from a late 90’s alt rock album.

The Stereophonics first album, ‘Word Gets Around’ in 1996, was somewhat of a let down in terms of sales, but critically the Stereophonics had gotten off to a good start. By the time this album had been out for a month, they had outsold Blur and had massive UK singles including ‘Pick A Part That’s New’ and ‘Just Looking’. Despite the argument that this album lacks the urgency of it’s older brother, the songs have a certain quality about them that makes them more instantly appealing than the previous tunes. The album gets off to a fine and energetic start after fifteen seconds or so of feedback.
