The Jesus & Mary Chain

Substance 2022 goes down October 21 & 22 in Los Angeles and also on the lineup are Clock DVA, Kontravoid, Linea Aspera, Schwefelgelb, Youth Code, Sextile, Cumgirl8, and more.

This week in Indie Basement: reviews of new albums from Deerhoof, Sebastien Tellier and Donny Benet, plus a new compilation of Britpop obscura, and a book on ‘C-86’ and the UK indie scene.

You can also listen to classic Peel Sessions from David Bowie and The Spiders From Mars, Roxy Music, Sonic Youth, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Smiths, The Fall, Echo & The Bunnymen, Hole, Jack White, Elvis Costello, Cocteau Twins and tons more.

’Trainspotting’ author Irvine Welsh and ’Trainspotting’ director Danny Boyle are reteaming for a new film about storied UK independent label Creation Records (home of Oasis, My Bloody Valentine & more), and founder Alan McGee will be played by Spud from ‘Trainspotting.’ It’s a rise-and-fall tale that’s definitely in their wheelhouse, full of rock n’ roll, drugs, and impenetrable Scottish accents.

Nine Inch Nails added another Aragon Ballroom show to their fall tour with The Jesus & Mary Chain, which went on sale today… in person only. Did you get tickets?

The Jesus & Mary Chain released their first new album in almost 20 years, toured North America back in the spring, and will be back this fall for more shows…

This week’s show included songs from Ride, Spoon, The Jesus & Mary Chain, Dirty Projectors, Mac DeMarco, Real Estate, Ryan Adams, a tribute to Kurt Cobain, and more.
