i agree Torley..I think they're one of the most interesting bands now, every album is such a different affair..But they did say their next album will be in the same vein as xtrmntr, loud and angry, they say right now they have that period of creativity and energy, so they're gonna take full advantage of it..vanishing point is a great album too, fueled by paranoia, wonderful!

Ross: Yes, shame it seems like it takes awhile (about 3 years or so, right?) between each of Primal Scream's albums. But it must be hard work for them... they have lush, lush arrangements just soaked in reverb at times and this thick, vibrating guitar fuzzz which sometimes reminds me of Pink Floyd in an odd way
Great stuff all the same

yeah, it takes them usually 3 yrs between albums, so it is kinda a long wait, but what they bring out is usually so good it makes you forget about that..reminds you of pink floyd? that's interesting, pink floyd are awesome, however i'd say Primal scream are more akin to the camp that stuff like the stone roses came out of

XTRMNTR is amazing! i was literally amazed when i first heard it--definitely one of my top 5 albums of 2000. It's perfect. my favorite track is "MBV Arkestra [If they move kill 'em]"

but of course. and who can forget "Kill all hippies"? also, "Insect Royalty" and "Shoot Speed/Kill Light" are great. every song is great. do you have the version with "I'm 5 Years Ahead of My Time"?

yeah, i actually found the version with it for cheaper than the retail which doesn't have it...so that's cool. it's a cover, i think, but i forget who did the original...

XTRMNTR is a brilliant piece of work...I especially the Jagz Kooner version of Swastika Eyes and the two Kevin Shield produced tracks (Accelerator and MBV Arkestra...the latter has got to be one of the best remixes EVER of ANY track by ANYBODY).

Screamadelica is fantastic, I always see it scoring high rankings on generic top 100 charts. I can see why. I haven't got around to giving Xtrmntr a good listening but I'll make a mental note to now. I'd better hurry though because my mental notes don't last long.

screamadellica might be their best output for now, though i'm not saying xtrmntr is bad....it's just bobby can't rap ;]

xtrmntr is alright but i always thought primal scream trying to do the anarcho-punky thing was a bit embarrassing. i do have a soft spot for a lot of their stuff though, screamadelica is a great summer album, i always end up listening back to back with u.f.orb for some reason... echo dek is one of my favourite dub albums as well, ju-87 and living dub are properly heavy, well worth getting if you like that sort of thing
