Click notify me above to be kept up to date.Originally forming in Scotland in 1982, Primal Scream were key to the C86 indie scene in the UK. They were signed by Alan McGee to Elevation Records in 1987 for their debut album, Sonic Flower Groove. Featuring Bobby Gillespie on vocals Jim Beattie and Andrew Innes on guitar, and Robert Young on bass, the sound of their debut is very different to thedance orientated groove they pioneered in the 1990s. Very much influenced by Nuggets, psychedelic pop and garage rock of 1960s America, the album was preceded by two singles of their Byrds-infused indie-pop; ‘Gentle Tuesday’, released June 1987, and ‘Imperial’, released September 1987. Featuring a number of non-album cuts, ‘I'm Gonna Make You Mine’ was originally released by The Shadows of Knight, and Pete Townsend’s ‘So Sad About Us’ was originally recorded by The Who

Come Ahead
Come Ahead is Primal Scream’s 12th full length record. 11 new songs that find Bobby Gillespie preparing to release some of the most personal songwriting of the band’s career.The songwriting process for Come Ahead began in 2019. At which point Bobby Gillespie had no idea if he would make another Primal Scream album again. For the first time, the lyrics came before the music. The story came first. Bobby wrote alone, using an acoustic guitar. Ideas flowed fast, in long bursts of inspiration. This process, in tandem with encouragement from producer David Holmes, provided a new way in. Working with Holmes and Primal Scream guitarist Andrew Innes, the Come Ahead sessions were completed between Belfast, London and Los Angeles.“I'm very excited about this album in a way that you would be making your first record. If there was an overall theme to Come Ahead it might be one of conflict, whether inner or outer. The title is a Glaswegian term. If someone threatens to fight you, you say, ‘come ahead!’ It’s redolent of the indomitable spirit of the Glaswegian, and the album itself shares that aggressive attitude and confidence. They have a word for this up there, gallus. Come Ahead’s quite a cheeky title too.” Bobby Gillespie.
