Primal Scream
 Originally
a guitar pop band formed by early Jesus & Mary Chain member
Bobby Gillespie, Primal Scream got harder, wilder and heavier as
the decade wore on, and would hit a solid dance groove in the
1980s.
Attracted to a dance scene that offered a spirit of adventure
- plus copious amounts of pharmaceuticals - Primal Scream
transformed themselves from pallid Byrds/Velvet Underground
copyists to innovative dance-rock evangelists for their third
LP, Screamadelica (1991).
Helped by then-unknown DJ Andy Weatherall, who remixed one of
their better songs into the Stones-go-Dub party
anthem, Loaded, Gillespie and co created a
musical kaleidoscope of styles ranging from psychedelic house to
stoned ballads, Dub symphonies to spaced-out jazz.
