The Jesus And Mary Chain
Album Listening Party

On July 11th, The Jesus And Mary Chain by reissuing the band's 5 CD Warner Bros. catalog as DualDiscs. Each DualDisc features a remastered version of the original album on the CD side, while the DVD side contains the album remastered in high-resolution stereo along with a trio of videos.

Scottish brothers William and Jim Reid formed The Jesus And Mary Chain in 1984 and spent the next 15 years creating fuzz-fueled symphonies of cacophony that hum with ragged pop beauty. Before disbanding in 1999, the band helped blaze a trail for the rise of alternative music in the '90s and influenced a generation with its artful mix of sharp-tongued guitar pop and sprawling drones.

Exploring a vein mined by their heroes The Velvet Underground and The Stooges, Glasgow, Scotland-based alt-rockers The Jesus And Mary Chain were the link between melody and feedback in the '80s and '90s. The band's half-dozen albums, nearly two dozen singles, and riot-inducing live shows were in turn an inspiration to the next generation of sonic subversives, from My Bloody Valentine to The Chemical Brothers to Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.
