After sorting out problems with their Swedish record label The Wannadies now felt they were suffering from a lack of support from BMG in the UK and went on strike. A compilation album of the best of their first three albums featuring tracks chosen by the band and entitled, appropriately, Skellefteå , was released in Scandinavia in the spring of 1998 with the band touring the region in support while their problems with BMG were being resolved.
