Exclusive: Primal Scream Documentary Part 4
In part four of our world-exclusive, five-part documentary, Bobby Gillespie and Mani talk about the process of recording ninth album 'Beautiful Future'
Few artists have resolutely ploughed their own furrow as Primal Scream. They've never stood still or stagnated and have called in many musical ports on their staggering journey. They've been psychedelic baggy groovers, indie/dance fusers, electro rock commandos and country'n'western fetishists. In an age where a winning formula has sounded the death knell to an artist's creativity, Primal Scream have consistently tore-up, and then re-written their own rule book.
In the fourth part of our five part documentary, Bobby and Mani talk about the recording of ninth album, Beautiful Future.
“We had the songs in January but we had to wait for months for the right producers to become available”, says Bobby.
The actual recording process, however, was very quick. It might have taken five months to wait on people, but the time spent in studios - five weeks - was remarkably fast.
“Yeah, it’s not bad for a bunch of junkie no marks. We work fast, man”, says Mani. “You can spend ages introspectively getting the magnifying glass out and aiming for perfection. Who wants it? Get the moment, capture it and ride it like a horse”.
