Primal Scream Australian Tour Supports Announced: Lime Cordiale and SSHH join the party
18 January 2018 The Rockpit
Fresh off the back of their debut album ‘Permanent Vacation’ which Beat Magazine called “ engaging and eclectic and is certainly a record not to be missed” , LIME CORDIALE are primed to make 2018 a massive year and there is no better way to kick it off than been announced as national support for PRIMAL SCREAM. Brothers Louis and Oli Lembach are excited to say the least with Louis exclaiming “ we are itching to get back on the road again and to be warming up the stage for a band of which we are long term fans of. It’s an absolute pleasure. Playing some big shows with some loyal Aussie Primal Scream fans is going to be a treat. We haven’t played our songs to an audience of this size before so it’ll be quite an experience for us. Hopefully they dig our stuff!”
Also joining this incredible bill is SSHH …a rare breed of band with comparisons ranging from Aphex Twin to The Sex Pistols, these guys are extreme. Fronted by the force of nature that is the singer Sshh Liguz, whose vocals have been described as a mixture of “Bowie, Siouxie Soux, Iggy Pop, Karen O & Robert Plant”, she’s a pint sized pocket rocket to be reckoned with. By her side is the man of the hour- Zak Starkey (Son of Ringo Starr), wielding his weapon of choice–a guitar–that takes your breath away and makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up on end in excitement. SSHH were recently described by NME as “ a pelvis swinging slice of gnarly power-pop rock with vocals so saucy they make ketchup seem like mere water ”.
Acid house hedonists, indie rock’n’rollers; PRIMAL SCREAM are a band who have built a 30 year career on the art of reinvention and they are bringing their incendiary live show back to Australia more powerful and engaged than ever.
Bobby Gillespie is the consummate rock & roll star. Willowy, wispy and radiating swagger, he struts around the stage, mic in hand like the genetically-engineered love child of Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison. His presence and ability to throw himself into a tune – spinning, sweating, hair plastered over his face, accompanied by trademark hand claps – still thrills crowds and propels PRIMAL SCREAM into a league of their own.
PRIMAL SCREAM will always say it with passion and energy and will be wowing Australian fans in February 2018 playing an all-encompassing greatest hit sets including tracks from their legendary 1991 album ‘Screamadelica’.

Primal scream.
W hether it’s a public image he’s created or just everyday life, Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield – Primal Scream’s riotous bass player – still exhibits a younger man’s ‘burning-the-candle-at-both-ends’ energy and wit. But the man at the centre of two of the UK’s most influential bands of the last 20-odd years has earned the right to play whatever hand he damn well wants.
W hether it’s a public image he’s created or just everyday life, Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield – Primal Scream’s riotous bass player – still exhibits a younger man’s ‘burning-the-candle-at-both-ends’ energy and wit. But the man at the centre of two of the UK’s most influential bands of the last 20-odd years has earned the right to play whatever hand he damn well wants. It was after all Mani’s smacked-out bass gave The Stone Roses their signature sound and has, since 1996, rumbled through all of Primal Scream’s records. But it was while he and his Stone Roses buddies were enjoying the start of what looked like a long, exciting career that a little Scottish band dropped the biggest acid-rock record of the times. The fast-changing underground club music scene in Britain finally got the benchmark album it had needed in Screamadelica and the bar was set. Primal Scream had arrived, and The Stone Roses suddenly seemed to get very wobbly indeed.
20 years on and Mani, who in another reality could be discussing a Stone Roses Don’t Look Back tour, is instead shooting the shit on his band’s re-visit to a defining moment in contemporary music. While singer Bobby Gillespie has continued to guide his band away from the warped psyche-rock of Screamadelica – Mani, who missed the wild, hedonistic ‘Scream of the early ‘90s, defies his leader’s wish to ‘chill-out’ with age. “I’ve been bugging the band to get stuck into the back catalogue for years and Bob (Gillespie) was dead-set against it,” he begins proudly. Having not been there for the initial hype around Screamadelica , in turn Mani had the objectivity to convince the rest of the band to bring it back to the stage.
“I think I’m more enthusiastic about it than Bobby or any of the other guys who played on the original album,” he grins. “I’m playing like a fucking juvenile and seeing the sheer beauty in it. I’ve been part of Primal Scream for the last 13 fucking years man, playing songs off this album… but the difference now is we’ve put a lot of effort into keeping to its original sound by stripping everything back and building it back up again for the shows,” he explains happily. “We’ve kept a lot of (producer) Andrew Weatherall’s original stuff – and it’s been a grind – but it was such a pay-off seeing 11,000 people at the Olympia in London going mad for it the other week.”
Of the two bands Mani played in to emerge triumphant so many years later, most people’s hard-earned would surely have backed The Stone Roses to carry on, considering Primal Scream’s patchy past and slow-to-capitalise-on- Screamadelica follow-up. History had other plans though, and while Mani saw his old band through to their end in 1996, he’d made a new home in Primal Scream before the amps had even been unplugged for the last time at camp Stone Rose.
“I think I’ve learned a lot more from playing in this band than I would have if the ‘Roses had kept going,” Mani claims. “I broadened me horizons when I joined this band, no question. I was always a big fan of Primal Scream because they were so similar to us (Stone Roses), if not musically, then personally. We had a lot of the same values and similar backgrounds, so we were all firm friends early on,” he remembers. “We used to always be slobbering over each other in clubs, ecstasy’d out of our fuckin’ minds out in Glasgow or Manchester… and so there was no doubt when the ‘Roses split up where I was headed.”
Just as the hazy groove-rock of debut The Stone Roses wiped out the competition in 1989, the following year-and-a-half belonged to Screamadelica . A young Mani was paying close attention and, he claims he saw a connection between what his old band had done previous to what Primal achieved in 1991. “I looked at it as the natural progression from us having, say break-beats on Fools Gold, and also the progression of a bunch of like-minded guys wanting to do something new,” he confirms. “You have to remember guitar bands weren’t being played in the clubs and acid house was taking over and there’s nothing wrong with a bit of cross-pollination in music if you can make it work. Primal Scream were ballsy bastards to try it, and only very few bands have managed to really pull off a thing like that.”
It seemed that the Glasgow lads had somehow tapped into that mystic cosmic funk and nothing they turned their hand to could fail. Indeed they managed to pass as a soul, psychedelic pop, acid house and blues rock band all in one release. “Too many bands out there now are scared to deviate from whatever their last album sounded like and Primal Scream was never interested in doing that,” Mani offers. “I mean if you want to do that, you might as well get a job in a fucking hat shop. Music should be a fucking tight-rope walk done by outsiders, ne’er do-wells, junkies and vagabonds, mate.”
Mani encapsulates the ‘Scream in this one sentence but his bravado, he reckons, isn’t reinforced by any universal love for the band. “Back home we kind of get ignored in a lot of respects. I don’t give a fuck what they say about us in the UK – I still think we’re one of the best fucking bands still doin’ it, but we don’t get a lot of support.” He adds, “But you know what, Primal Scream isn’t our job; it’s what we do twenty-four-seven and we know how to kick it from arsehole to balls, and I don’t see any other rock ‘n’ roll bands playing with the kind of feeling we give it.”
While Stone Roses’ notorious front-man Ian Brown spent most of the ‘90s in and out of trouble/prison, Mani fought, mouthed-off and shocked for all he was worth, but somehow got away with it. That is at least until last year when supergroup Freebass, on the verge of releasing their debut album, ended suddenly with a very public serve of humiliation from Mani to Peter Hook – the group’s founder and the ex-New Order bassist. Freebass, which also included ex-Smiths bassist Andy Rourke, was in Mani’s words, “Something to keep me match fit while the ‘Scream were doin’ nothing.” Mani accused Hook (via Twitter) of getting fat off Ian Curtis’s blood money for touring Joy Division with none of the original members. “God bless him though, and I apologised to Peter and we’re friends still, but in the end everybody bailed out of fucking Freebass.” Mani laughs, “What can I say, I’m from Manchester mate and we’re a bunch of gobby bastards so whatever I said at the time that was just me being me. That’s what comes from spending time with the likes of Ian Brown and Liam Gallagher in the pub!”
The bigger the gob, the much bigger than required bass amp and the cheeky stoned grin all suggest Mani has his priorities in order and failed supergroups aren’t among them. Right now his sights are set on winning over his Australian fans again following 2009’s sensory-annihilating shows. “I’m countin’ the days off on my wall chart until I can get on that plane and come over to Melbourne mate,” Mani barks. “Love the fuckin’ place, love the people and can’t wait to come and play for you all again.”
When the Screamadelica shows wrap up, it is already widely rumoured that the band are heading straight back into the studio to record album number 10. Mani’s sure of only one thing though, the new stuff will be ‘unlike anything they’ve done before.’
“Well we could end up doing a fucking skiffle album, you just never know,” he laughs, “that’s something we haven’t tried yet and we’ve been around for about 8,000 years now so maybe it’s time.” Mani says, cracking up, “We’re gonna turn into travelling freak show freaks like the bearded lady or the fucking human dick, you know what I mean?” he cackles. “There’s a kind of voyeuristic way in which people see Primal Scream, I think. They’re just staring going ‘what the fuck is that all about?’ So we can’t disappoint ‘em can we?”
PRIMAL SCREAM bring their legendary, epoch-defining album Screamadelica to life at the BIG DAY OUT at Flemington Racecourse on Sunday January 30 and perform that ground-breaking set, in full, at The Forum on February 2 (sold out) and 3 (tickets from ticketmaster.com.au and 136 100).

Primal Scream is a Scottish indie rock and alternative dance group, formed by Bobby Gillespie and Jim Beattie in 1982, hailing from Glasgow, Scotland.
Originally formed with a host of influences ranging from punk rock to new wave, Bobby Gillespie and Jim Beattie first began by banging dustbin lids together and playing fuzz-guitar. Primal Scream’s debut performance came in 1982, however it wasn’t until 1984 the band made their recording debut with the single “The Orchard”, released on school friend Alan McGee's Essential Records. In 1985 Primal Scream signed with Creation Records, however despite a number of single releases, didn’t find success until Gillespie departed his other group the Jesus and the Mary Chain.
With the addition of Andrew Innes and Robert Young, the band found their single “Velocity Girl” end up on an NME cassette tape. The result was huge exposure for the developing band, and they fit the indie pop image like a hand to a glove. The band’s debut album “Sonic Flower Groove”, issued in 1987, was received with critical acclaim, as was is successor the self-titled “Primal Scream” in 1989.
The band's subsequent release saw a move away from the rock and roll aesthetic of the Rolling Stone and the Stooges, and towards the growing electronic and acid house scene. The result was “Loaded” a reworking of the existing song “I’m Losing More Than I’ll Ever Have”, making rock and roll accessible to dance fans and dance accessible to rock and roll fans. Primal Scream’s subsequent album “Screamadelica” represented an epoch in UK pop history, it brought techno and house to a mainstream ear. The album earned remarkably rave reviews and later won the very first Mercury Music Prize in 1992.
1994’s “Give Out but Don’t Give Up” saw the band return to their hard rock element, although in comparison to its predecessors faired neither well in the charts or nor among critics. Shortly after Primal Scream contributed the lead track to the cult film “Trainspotting”, which paved the way for a darker themed well-received electronic album titled “Vanishing Point” in 1997. The band subsequently released the albums “XTRMNTR” in 2000, “Evil Heat” in 2002, “Riot City Blues” in 2006, and “More Light” in 2013.
Live reviews
Founded by the original drummer for The Jesus and Mary Chain, Bobby Gillespie, Primal Scream are absolute legends of the eighties post punk scene. Fed up with the so called “new wave”, Gillespie set out to create a different sound. Let the record reflect that he succeeded. Eventually finding a happy medium between hard rock and acid house, to see them live in their prime was a joy and delight.
Catching one of their festival sets in the early nineties (they still make the festival rounds in the UK, so you haven’t missed your chance) was one of the highlights of my misspent youth. From the very start Primal Scream had the crowd on their feet and well…screaming. With a fairly unadorned dark stage, absolutely packed with musicians, this is a band that knows it doesn't need any bells and whistles to please its audience. Effortlessly switching from a funky dance beat to a more bluesy sound (think the Stones) and back again, these Glasgow rockers cannot fail to make an impression. By the time they got around to playing their big hit, the crowd was practically in a frenzy of wild sweaty joyful movement. There is a reason why true music fans consider Primal Scream such legends and this was it.
Report as inappropriate
Bobby Gillespie and co are now a frequenter of the British music festivals each summer mainly due to the devoted nature of their UK fanbase. No matter if you have seen Primal Scream once or hundreds of times, you are assured to enjoy yourself due to the passionate way in which the band conducts their show.
Although Bobby may seem dazed and confused as he stumbles around stage during extensive instrumentals, he still knows how to work the crowd and the reaction that he can achieve as he teases the cheering masses during the introduction to 'Loaded' and 'Higher Than The Sun'. There is no denying 'Screamadelica' remains their most irreverent album and the band does not shy away from its material yet they also have chance to showcase new tracks from 'More Light' proving they still have a great understanding of contemporary rock. 'Rocks' closes the main set tonight with the usual anthemic singalong so the crowd knows the encore will include their other iconic track 'Movin' On Up'. A little slice of alt-rock history, Primal Scream never fail to entertain.
A buzzing 02 academy liverpool was the epicenter for a stunning performance from primal scream,from the opening guitar rifts of MOVIN ON UP to the finale of ROCKS the intensity and energy never waivered,all the classics were in there from the 90s inspired COME TOGETHER to there last single 100 PERCENT OR NOTHING bobby gillespie,s enthusiasm never faltered as he fed off the crowds appreciation.SWASTIKA EYES produced the usual burst of energy from the audience followed through with the likes of DOLLS,JAILBIRD and COUNTRY GIRL blew the roof off the place,all in all a fantastic night from a fantastic band and it was a privelage to be there long may they continue,see you next time bobby!!!!!
The Scream back on form! Amazing gig!
New album works better live than studio versions, opening with Movin' On Up was bold and genius.
Ending with Come Together was blinding. Best ever Swastika Eyes I've ever seen them do.
Even enjoyed seeing them at The Palladium which I had reservations about. Great vibe and sounds a great room.
Awesome show! .... great set list with a mix of old and new. Bobby worked the crowd and was Jagger-esque in his red suit. Simone took heed of Paul Simomon's advice and rocked the stage with lower heels.... and looked sublime. 'Come Together' just finished the gig perfectly. 10/10
That was such an awesome show last night. Bobby Gillespie is one of the greatest frontmen of all time and drove the whole show. I was dancing all night to songs such as "Swastika Eyes", "Loaded" and "Country Girl". I'd go see this band any day of the week
Hello everyone,the concert of primal scream was great,they have a really good playlist and bobby is amazing,if they come back i will be there.I have seen them 5 times and they always give the maximun
I love to see Primal scream live. Managed to get to the barrier and was also lucky to get a set list. Have seen them many times before and will definitely be going to see them in the future.
fuckin awesome bobby done us proud in warsaw,lot of expats at the gig good atmosphere and we all got our rocks off at the palladium in warsaw,superb performance and great night thanks bobby
The concert was not so good, Simone Butler the bass player was ill and didn't play the gig. It was a great miss. Sound desk was not equalized either, it was very mixed up.

Now, with the amount of dates Billie has — as well as the fact that she’s only going to three cities — things might look intimidating, especially if you were caught up in that horrible Eras Tour situation with the dreaded Ticketek waiting lounge .

And finally, for fans hoping to nab a Melbourne ticket, the Artist, Amex, Album presale will start at 2pm and will conclude on Thursday, 2 May at 2pm.
Missed out on the Artist, Amex, or Album presale? No sweat, Live Nation and Frontier Touring will have its own presale!

How much are tickets going for?
