Biography
Primal Scream are a Scottish alternative rock group formed in 1982 in Glasgow by
Bobby Gillespie (vocals) and Jim Beattie. The current lineup consists of
Gillespie, Andrew Innes (guitar), Martin Duffy (keyboards), Gary "Mani"
Mounfield (bass), and Darrin Mooney (drums). Barrie Cadogan toured with the band
in 2006 as a temporary replacement after the departure of guitarist Robert
"Throb" Young. Young's permanent replacement has not yet been announced. They
have sold 10 million albums to date.
The band performed throughout 1982-1984, but their career didn't especially take
off until Gillespie left his position as drummer of The Jesus and Mary Chain.
The band were a key part of the mid-1980s indie pop scene, but eventually moved
away from their more jangly sound, taking on more psychedelic and then garage
rock influences, before incorporating a dance music element to their sound.
Their 1991 album Screamadelica broke the band into the mainstream. Despite
multiple lineup changes, the band has remained commercially successful and
continues to tour and record to this day.
