Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra’s psychedelic classic has been covered every way imaginable, and is still being used to soundtrack surreal moments in shows like Mr. Robot. But Primal Scream’s take on the classic ’60s psych-pop song is distinctive, even in a world where an entrancing Slowdive cover also exists. Not only is it because Gillespie (a Ha...
Released in the summer of 1997, Primal Scream’s Star EP is a slower, sadder work that verbalizes everything that’s not spoken on Vanishing Point, the mostly instrumental album the band would put out less than a month later. On this EP, the band shed any semblance of toughness and showed the vulnerable side of stardom, musing on higher powers (“Jesu...
The hypnotic, Chemical Brothers-produced “Shoot Speed/Kill Light” is a highlight from XTRMNTR, Primal Scream’s most radical and decidedly political album. Gillespie grew up loving the likes of anarchist-bent punks such as the Sex Pistols, and that sensibility is evident on XTRMNTR tracks like “Swastika Eyes.” Around its release, Gillespie told Pape...
Call me swoony, but I love me some early, noise-pop-heavy Primal Scream. Around the time of Sonic Flower Groove’s release, Gillespie and his contemporaries in Glasgow — including local bands and art students in Strawberry Switchblade, the Pastels, and the Soup Dragons — were reveling at a short-lived but massively influential party called A Splash ...
2013’s More Light was a strong return to form for Primal Scream after two relatively sub-par releases (2006’s Riot City Blues and 2008’s Beautiful Future), melding their Krautrock, electronic, and pop sensibilities into a kaleidoscopic affair (and it features the best album art in the band’s career). Gillespie grew up in tenements in suburban Scotl...
“Trainspotting” shows how Primal Scream can flex their instrumental scoring chops (hell, they might want to think about doing it more often). The band wound up scoring a song for Danny Boyle’s heroin-soaked adaptation of Irvine Welsh’s eponymous novel because they had been fortuitously interviewed by Welsh for i-D during the Give Out But Don’t Give...
During the Screamadelica era, the guys of Primal Scream were listening to Curtis Mayfield’s Superfly on repeat. So it’s no surprise that influence bled onto what would become their most important album, and Mayfield’s presence is particularly felt on “Movin’ On Up.” To this day it’s Primal Scream’s most popular song, and it’s not hard to see why: T...
By the late ’90s, Primal Scream had all but shed their bluesy rock ‘n’ roll allegiances that had permeated 1994’s rollicking Give Out But Don’t Give Up. They unveiled the one-two punch of Vanishing Point and XTRMNTR, two efforts that dove into the realm where dub and dance met in a manic mating call. The first, Vanishing Point, saw Primal Scream pl...
Before they plunged into forging formative acid-house-meets-indie, Primal Scream got their kicks making crystalline noise pop, which they mastered on the sickly sweet “Velocity Girl.” The B-side to “Crystal Crescent,” their second single “Velocity Girl” is as short as a sugar high and just as sweet. The song is both a nod to Gillespie’s love of Bea...
Screamadelica, Primal Scream’s third album and often cited as their best, transformed the band from Byrds fanboys into a pioneering force who melded rock with acid house and electronica. After the modest sales of Sonic Flower Groove, the band did two things in the late 1980s that would prove to be game-changing: They punkified their songs and began...

“Primal Scream,” released on their 1991 album Decade of Decadence ’81-’91, is a perfect example of the band’s ability to capture the essence of angst and defiance. The song’s lyrics paint a vivid picture of struggle, resilience, and ultimately finding the strength to unleash one’s true self.
