Media Recognition
In a 2000 poll by Q to discover the 100 greatest British albums of all time as voted by the British public, the Undertones' eponymous debut LP was voted the 90th greatest British album.
The Undertones have also been subject of a 2004 documentary, The Undertones: Teenage Kicks, which was recorded in 2001. The 65-minute documentary features the band wandering their old haunts and discussing their formation, career and reunion with John Peel.

Famous quotes containing the words media and/or recognition:
“The media network has its idols, but its principal idol is its own style which generates an aura of winning and leaves the rest in darkness. It recognises neither pity nor pitilessness.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“I waited and worked, and watched the inferior exalted for nearly thirty years; and when recognition came at last, it was too late to alter events, or to make a difference in living.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
