Our Take

The Jesus and Mary Chain's latest album, Glasgow Eyes, is a thrilling ride through the dark and moody underworld of post-punk. From the opening track "Psychocandy" to the closing notes of "Darklands," this album is a sonic assault on the senses.

The band's signature blend of fuzzed-out guitars and haunting vocals is on full display here, creating a hypnotic sound that draws you in and refuses to let go. Each track is a journey into the depths of the human psyche, exploring themes of love, loss, and isolation with a raw intensity that is both unsettling and exhilarating.

But Glasgow Eyes is not all doom and gloom. The Jesus and Mary Chain injects a healthy dose of dark humor into their music, with lyrics that are equal parts witty and menacing. Tracks like "Teenage Lust" and "April Skies" are sly nods to the band's rebellious spirit, while songs like "Just Like Honey" and "Happy When It Rains" showcase their softer, more melodic side.

Overall, Glasgow Eyes is a masterful blend of noise and melody, darkness and light. The Jesus and Mary Chain have once again proven why they are one of the most influential bands in the post-punk scene. So put on your headphones, turn up the volume, and let Glasgow Eyes transport you to a place where the only thing that matters is the music. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist

The Jesus and Mary Chain

The Jesus and Mary Chain are the Scottish siblings who brought chaos to the tranquil waters of 80s indie rock. Formed in 1983 by brothers Jim and William Reid, this band is a perfect storm of punk attitude, melodic sensibility, and a healthy dose of feedback-drenched noise. Their groundbreaking debut album "Psychocandy" from 1985 is a genre-defining masterpiece, fusing sweet pop melodies with a blistering wall of sound. With their signature blend of dark lyrics and distorted guitars, The Jesus and Mary Chain quickly became darlings of the underground music scene, influencing countless bands to come. Tracks like "Just Like Honey" and "Head On" have stood the test of time, proving that sometimes a little chaos is exactly what you need. But don't let their brooding image fool you - the Reids are known for their sharp wit and irreverent sense of humour. Whether they're throwing shade at the music industry or poking fun at themselves, The Jesus and Mary Chain are always quick with a clever quip. After a tumultuous career that included breakups, reunions, and everything in between, The Jesus and Mary Chain are still going strong today. Their latest album "Damage and Joy" from 2017 is a reminder of why we fell in love with them in the first place - a perfect mix of darkness and light, noise and melody. So if you're looking for a band that's equal parts cool and chaotic, look no further than The Jesus and Mary Chain. They may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those who get it, they're pure sonic bliss. And that's not just our feedback talking.
