The record went on to win deservedly win the debut Mercury Prize in 1992. The landmark album which fused the club music of the late 80s and early 90s with swaggering rock n roll and glimpses of blues and soul, celebrates its 30th anniversary and still sounds as fresh and urgent as ever. The release of their third album 1991’s 'Screamadelica' changed the trajectory for the group entirely, catapaulting them into the charts and earning rave reviews across the board. Bobby Gillespie and Andrew Innes had until the early 90s struggled to make the band work, lost for direction. Primal Scream formed in 1982 and while now a household name, initially struggled to capture this level of success with their first few releases earning middling reviews and lacking in commercial success.
