Underneath all of that noise, they always had the melodies underneath. Darklands was the proof of them not being some gimmick flavor-of-the-month band. They were just as big fans of The Beach Boys as they were of Suicide.
I think drum machine never be better than Bobby Gillespie on stand-up drums... I dislike the sound of Darklands, cause I was traumatized by Psycocandy. But all darklands songs like this one are very beautiful.
Doesn't it suck that you can only hear the JAMC for the first time once? This was the one for me. Driving around in my hometown, hearing this on KRUI and running home to call the station and ask who this was.
man I can relate to that so much. For me it was the piercing noise of Never Understand - it took me a while to fully "get it" but it completely blew me away.
Probably the best i've heard them live. This was the song that got me hooked to JAMC however dare I say commercial it was in comparison to most of there other songs. I loved the "Psycho Candy" "Darklands" "Sound of speed" and "Barbed Wire Kisses" albums. Very dangerous melodies.The Jesus And Mary Chain will always be my bible. Best cover by them I think is Leonard Cohens "Tower of song" Give it a listen,,,,please.
this is my absolute favorite too, ian. i watched it once and it was so great, but i couldnt find it forever. but we've been returned to each other! god, i love this.
LOUDER PLEASE!!!!!!!!

Yeah. Can you imagine hearing "April Skies" before Darklands was released, and buying Psychocandy to hold you over? Sonic dissonance.
