Primal Scream

Since their beginnings as a neo-psychedelic group in the late 1980s, Primal Scream has travelled a twisting path, with stops at indie rock, blues rock, dub, dance, and techno. Though mainman Bobby Gillespie (formerly of the Jesus and Mary Chain) and his band may never top the U.S. pop charts (which they do consistently in Europe), they continue to produce defiantly hybridized music at the razor's edge of sonic art.
