Description
A nice copy of the first album by the Jesus and Mary Chain.
This is an early, 1986 reissue, the year after original release, and it has the lined inner sleeve and the white labels without the flags. Most items listed as "first press" are not a first press. The first pressing had a card inner and was pressed at DAMONT.
There is some light wear around the edges of the sleeve (see photos) but it is generally very good with no damage, and the vinyl is excellent. Inner has no tears or burst seams. Record will be placed in separate paper sleeve.
"Psychocandy is the debut studio album by Scottish rock band the Jesus and Mary Chain. It was released in November 1985 on Blanco y Negro Records. The album is considered a landmark recording: its combination of guitar feedback and noise with traditional pop melody and structure proved influential on the forthcoming shoegazing genre and alternative rock in general.
The album reached No. 31 on the UK Albums Chart and was preceded by three charting 1985 singles: "Never Understand", "You Trip Me Up", and "Just Like Honey". The band moved away from its abrasive sound with their follow-up album, 1987's Darklands."
