The mini-album Ecstasy (? 1987 - nov 1987) explored the ambiguity that would make their mature sound so haunting and devastating: ecstasy and terror were two faces of the same moon, and that moon shone day and night. Daydreaming and nightmare became the same state of mind as guitars enveloped naive melodies and drums smashed vocal harmonies. Isn't Anything (? 1988 - nov 1988) went one step further than Jesus And Mary Chain, in that it renounced punk's violence and harked back to the most dilated forms of acid-rock. Kevin Shields' "shoegazing" guitar fulfilled Jerry Garcia's and Jimi Hendrix' galactic bliss, and helped the sweet litanies grind their way into a transcendental trance. Electronic keyboards joined guitar noise on Loveless (? jan 1989/? 1991 - nov 1991), the ultimate exploration of textures in rock music. Its stunning chaos can be viewed both as an enraptured "om" to the universe or as a deranged scream in a madman's cell or as a terrified paralysis in the face of a supernatural force.

  • Musician Jason Pierce on Taking Your Time
    November 30, 2018 - As told to Gary Canino, 1972 words. Tags: Music, Process, Inspiration, Time management, Focus. On taking your time Musician Jason Pierce (of Spiritualized) on songwriting, what it means to chase after your own creative mistakes, and the responsibility of always doing your best. In the press for your new record you’ve mentioned Kris Kristofferson and other classic singer-songwriters as an influence. What’s amazing about their songs is they avoid the obvious hooks, and there’s a narrative that goes through them. So it’s like a sing-along, where you don’t actually sing along to those songs. When I saw Kristofferson live recently, he had this musical, ghostly sound behind his voice and it was just absolute magic. I was completely humbled by his songwriting. These artists pack these songs up and send them out, and I’ll never forget them. I forget that people buy tickets to see our shows until I see them, then I’m astounded that people actually like what we do and we don’t have to prove ourselves every time, but we always do anyway, if that makes sense. It always feels like a challenge, like we’ve gotta raise the bar. Did you always want to have big arrangements in your music before you had the means to have so many people on stage? We still don’t have the means to do it. We still lose money, but playing stripped down is great, too. As soon as you get rid of the massive band, there’s more room for the guitars all of a sudden.
