Second Of June

Back in 2024 The Jesus And Mary Chain returned with an album called Glasgow Eyes, one that sounded like the Reid brothers were enjoying the freedom of a creative spurt. Scuzzy synths, FX and drum machines were added to the guitars and it was a fairly intense and uncompromising record, one with a certain amount of swagger to it. Towards the end of the album was this song...

Second Of June

And it seemed most apt to post today. 

'There's a blood moon on the rise and murder in your eyes', Jim drawls as William strums an acoustic guitar and a drum machine patters away. 'Brother can you hear me calling you?' he carries on and then as if to remind everyone who they're listening to, in case they'd forgotten who was making this music, 'Face the sky/ Take cover before you die/ The Jesus and Mary Chain'.
