Surprised by how much love there is on this thread. I like the record too, it's just very...Un-ILX

Why'd you say that? I rate it higher than Screamadelica and XTRMNTR.

CLASSIC!!!
It's tough for me to choose between this album and XTRMNTR, but some days I think this is the superior record.
I love both far, far more than Screamadelica too, which I don't think has actually aged all that well.

it's not as aggro as XTRMNTR

Vanishing point ans xtrmntr sucha great pair of records, with echo dek wonderful in between. Shame it all went downhill after that.

so, what did ever happen to Brendan Lynch? His Wiki page lacks detail, to say the least: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brendan_Lynch_(music_producer)
― mahb, Tuesday, 30 August 2016 12:13 (seven years ago) link
Agreed, two great albums, agreed, never able to get into Screamadelica. Evil Heat has some really good shit on it, too ('The Lord Is My Shotgun' is a super hot track).

Oh, yeah, Echo Dek was good, too!
My first exposure was seeing 'Rocks Off' on 120 Minutes and wondering, who are these clowns? I kinda couldn't believe it was the same band when I heard the Trainspotting soundtrack.

Oh, I just pretend the whole Give Out But Don't Give Up period never existed.

No idea, I remember he worked on XTRMNTR and Paul Weller's Heliocentric, both of which came out in 2000, and then I can't bring to mind anything that he's done after that, which is a huge shame because I really liked his production style.

this album really is a miss but there are a couple bright spots - I like some of the single remixes.

seem to recall dj food crafting a mix out of the best stuff by BL as he had a definite sound.
ah ha ..

Vanishing Point is my favorite PS album, but Echo Dek is in a close 2nd. I may even prefer Echo Dek, but I haven't played either in a little bit.

I may even prefer Echo Dek
tis a brilliant remix/redux album ..
welcome to the world of on-u sound.

just to say that following this thread bump, i grabbed that dj food mix of BL productions and its rather bloody good.
(kev told me he was going to do one, but i forgot all about it !)

The band were pretty great sounding live around 97 and for the next couple of years. A really dub like sound in the mix.I still find Bobby's voice really thin. But still hoping for more live sets from that era to appear.
I was surprised to read Alan McGee saying that he thought Bobby was a natural singer in the Creation Stories book. Never thought of it as a very strong point for him.
― Stevolende, Thursday, 1 September 2016 13:33 (seven years ago) link
He's a fucking awful singer. Good frontman / figurehead / focus of attention, I guess. But thin, reedy, asthmatic singer.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Thursday, 1 September 2016 13:48 (seven years ago) link
I don't think he's anywhere near a good singer either, but then I don't listen to Primal Scream for the singing.
― the hair - it's lost its energy (Turrican), Thursday, 1 September 2016 18:16 (seven years ago) link
as long as Gillespie sticks to his role of looking cool and occasionally yelping things he's fine but as a singer qua singer yeah his voice is p weak and who listens to these records for the singing
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 1 September 2016 18:21 (seven years ago) link
My favourite tracks of theirs are often instrumentals!
― the hair - it's lost its energy (Turrican), Thursday, 1 September 2016 18:25 (seven years ago) link
That McGee should be praising Gillespie in any way, no matter how WTF, shouldn't really come as any huge shock... those guys have been great friends for decades.
― the hair - it's lost its energy (Turrican), Thursday, 1 September 2016 18:27 (seven years ago) link
which is one reason why Echo Dek is in the running for their best album.
