Sittin' Pretty is the forceful & exuberant second album by Scottish indie band The Pastels, released in 1989. The first track, "Nothing to Be Done" was featured in the soundtrack of 1998's film adaptation of Irvine Welsh' novel "The Acid House". Their early records (1982–85) for labels like Whaam!, Creation, Rough Trade, and Glass Records, had a raw and immediate sound, melodic and amateur, which seemed at odds with the time. But an emerging fanzine culture identified with the group's sound and image, and slowly The Pastels started to influence a new wave of groups, which interested the NME and other UK media.
The Pastels' sound continued to evolve and, although part of the NME's C86 compilation, in interviews they always sought to distance themselves from both twee and shambling developments. Their debut album, Up for a Bit With The Pastels (Glass, 1987) moved from garage pop-punk through to ballads with synth orch splashes. Sittin' Pretty was released in the UK by Chapter 22 Records.
