released in november 1987, sinead's striking debut album 'the lion and the cobra' was met with critical and commercial success.
the album synthesises several of sinead's influences into a diverse array of sounds and styles, from the hushed, atmospheric 'troy' and 'jackie' to the pop-rock hit single 'mandinka', and the hip-hop inspired 'i want your (hands on me)'. the album also includes 'drink before the war', a song written by sinead about her experiences at the catholic reform school she attended, and was featured in the hbo series 'euphoria'.
