The Jesus and Mary Chain- My little underground

[lentpn01]

the best! doesn't pull the punch. and the recording - yeah it's intentional.

[deathinmidsummer]

1:22, the world all makes sense. can't argue against that tsunami of beautiful noise

[thenewwoodsman]

this album breaks my heart because the music is SO GOOD but the recording is SO SHITTY. i know a lot of you cooler people will say the recording is part of the charm, but i have always wished psychocandy was just a little bit cleaner .... just a little bit. don't get me wrong - still love the album. discovered it in 97 and still listen to it

[smeltedcheese]

@thenewwoodsman i hear you but wouldn't it just be another pleasant pop record if not for the shitty production? i love hook-laden pop but i think the noisy recording forces you to listen a little harder and discover the beautiful songs as if they were buried underground. no pun intended.

[sickmelon]

@thenewwoodsman actually the fact is not "the recording is shitty" but is more like "the J&MC wanted the recording that way".

[ucla4eva]

@thenewwoodsman Hmm...are you a wanker? Yes you are.

[linustapped]

@ucla4eva wanker ... lol in that debut album on the dust sleeve Jiim Reid had the word "SUCK" in lipstick or marker on his exposed belly. My point? I don't need a point and neither do they, look up Metal Machine by Lou Reed - he did the massive feedback on purpose throught a whole album with the Velvet Underground - but that was to get our of a shitty recording contract. See I said shitty recording. I stayd on topic. its all in the subtext and in yer ears.

[lyonslaforet]

Psychocandy (1985) is one of the most fascinating debut albums ever recorded! The perfect Velvet Underground influence!

[TheParanoiack]

This album is so ingenious, it's a shame there aren't any live videos of this song to be found on youtube.

[tamus2000]

The Reid brothers and billy Gillespie of course were and still total legends

[XEmoMuffinTopzX]

I love this song and this band their lyrics kick butt to the max

[CHCReinhardt]

I can't stop listening to this song. If my music ever gets known, I will simply admit straight up the influence this band has on me.

[benjjaminn]

incredible song, and band. one of my fave albums. listen to it all the time

[GameGearLTD]

One of the most influent bands of the 80's

[LennonMorrissey]

'I can't, can't understand it, don't know why, don't know why!' My favourite bit of the song.

[chordateify]

Doesn't take much to impress you, does it?

[LennonMorrissey]

@chordateify not really no. lol. I just like segments like that - they make me feel good inside for some reason.

[flipperyf1]

@LennonMorrissey amazing song and a amazing bit in the song superb! :)
