Remastered version of this highly-influential album from one of the most important rock groups of the last two decades. The Jesus And Mary Chain blended noise and droning feedback with conventional pop melodies and structures to create a series of unforgettable recordings during their 15-year existence. Formed in Glasgow, The Jesus and Mary Chain turned alternative music "upside down" with their very first release, while their assaultive and abbreviated live performances earned them equal notoriety at the time. Steered by brothers Jim and William Reid on guitars and vocals (and at one point, future Primal Scream founder Bobby Gillespie on drums), The Jesus And Mary Chain mixed Velvets-inspired noise with Spector-inspired songcraft to create a sound that was wholly new. Though the occasionally contentious siblings finally went their separate musical ways in 1999, their distinctive fuzz pop laid the groundwork for most of the shoegazer and Brit-pop bands that followed in their wake.
