Reader:"A few years ago i blagged a ticket to an icelandic music festival, travelling with primal scream and prodigy. on a day off, after taking a coach up a very steep mountain road to a glacier, you threw an embarrassingly girly fit, refused to travel down with the rest of us, and demanded a hellicopter. remember?"
Bobby G:"haha! Right, what happened was it took hours to get up there and the whole time I thought the bus was going to topple over the edge, and i was really cold too. when we got to the top, i just went 'get me fucking out of here'. and this guy put me in a jeep and drove me back at 90mph - that was really exciting, like being in some crazy road movie. as for demanding the hellicopter, yeah i probably did. Hey, that's fair enough. I'm a lead singer in a fucking rock and roll band! Why not?"
I love the way he tries to regain some macho pride by saying "that was really exciting, like being in some crazy road movie". Bobby gillespie: man of the people, indeed.

NME gave the Scream dogs abuse for the Give Out But Don't Give Upalbum. Infact they really hated rocks in particular when they reviewed the single.
That album may not be perfect but I don't think it's as bad as NME & Co claimed at the time.
The new album is a return to stonesy stuff isn't it? hmmm. I'm not sure thats a great idea though, they've spent years trying to get rid of that image. Still lets wait and see what it sounds like before judging. After all Evil Heat was just a rehash of xtrmntr(their best album IMO)
At least the Scream aren't just content releasing clones of Screamadelica which I'm sure the press would've preferred.

they were only 11 when xtrmntr was released.
― DJ Martian (djmartian), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 12:09 (eighteen years ago) link
Wow. I’ve always thought of XTRMNTR as the inverse of Screamadelica. They’re structured very similarly.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Saturday, 21 March 2020 11:24 (four years ago) link
Agreed. From multiple mixes of the same song to radical remixes of tunes from the last record.

Yo Bobby G!!!!!!!!🤘🔥❤️@primalscreamofficial Witnessed blinding gig last nite by @thurstonmoore58 @cafeotodalston TM & James Shredwards straffing on twin guitar sonic attack whilst our darling @googoogiegoo anchored the sound w/ stone solid bass rhythms allowing the boys to fly around her ( sonically speaking ! ) freely safe in the knowledge they had a safe place to land again after their psyche zonked astral ( guitar ) adventure's - all needle frequency angular solos spiralling into hypnotic drones which sucked out our skulls and spewed out our brains and it felt real good, lemme tell you people. It was a Zoom only type affair so only fifteen of us lucky ones got to see it in the flesh. Such a blast to see a proper r & r band play again and it sure did blast away de ol' lockdown blues. 🎸⭐️🎸 Photograph by Brother @jamesendeacott

I watched the French movie FULL TIME yesterday. The protagonist is a hotel maid who at one point has to power-wash one room's bathroom walls because they're covered in a guest's feces. The guest is described as "the Scottish rock star" and my instantaneous mental reaction was, Wow, I wonder what inspired the screenwriter to take such a shot at Bobby Gillespie?
