Glasgow Eyes (Transparent Blue Vinyl) - By: The Jesus And Mary Chain - Model Number: FC226V12GR2

Description

Marking 40 years of The Jesus And Mary Chain, ˜Glasgow Eyes™ was recorded at Mogwai™s Castle of Doom studio in Glasgow, where Jim and William continued the creative process that resulted in their previous album, 2017™s ˜Damage and Joy™, becoming their highest charting album in over twenty years.

What emerged is a record that finds one of the UK™s most influential groups embracing a productive second chapter, their maelstrom of melody, feedback and controlled chaos now informed more audibly by their love for Suicide and Kraftwerk and a fresh appreciation of the less disciplined attitudes found in jazz.

Jim Reid says, But don™t expect ˜the Mary Chain goes jazz.™ People should expect a Jesus and Mary Chain record, and that™s certainly what ˜Glasgow Eyes™ is. Our creative approach is remarkably the same as it was in 1984, just hit the studio and see what happens. We went in with a bunch of songs and let it take its course. There are no rules, you just do whatever it takes. And there™s a telepathy there - we are those weird not-quite twins that finish each other™s sentences.

˜Glasgow Eyes™ not only extends The Jesus and Mary Chain's story, but feels simultaneously like a return to roots. From the incendiary ˜Psychocandy™ debut and its classic ˜Just Like Honey™ onwards, the Reid brothers steadily became the misfits who made good without compromise.
