The Jesus and Mary Chain - Automatic (Vinyl LP, Blanco Y Negro, 1991) - EX / NM

The Jesus and Mary Chain’s Automatic is their 1989 third studio album, bringing a harder, more streamlined edge to the Reid brothers’ combination of noise, melody and rock & roll. Built around drum machines, programmed bass and dense layers of guitar, the record moves away from the raw feedback of their earliest work towards a muscular alternative rock sound. Highlights include “Head On,” “Blues from a Gun” and “Halfway to Crazy.”

Blanco Y Negro, 1989.
