Primal Scream siempre ha sido un acto musical que va más allá de un sonido, explorando la psicodelia, la política y el éxtrasis con la misma intensidad. Bobby Gillespie puede llevarnos con sus letras a un viaje introspectivo o hacernos parte de su crítica feroz al sistema el mismo día. Con él, la libertad se abraza con el desencanto y la euforia se toma de la mano con la desesperanza, mientras el hedonimos los observa quieto. Y estas son algunas de sus mejores y más impactantes frases que recopilamos:
1. Experience and innocence bleed inside me. Hallucinogens can open me or untie me. I drift in inner space, free of time. I find a higher state of grace in my mind. I’m beautiful.
Higher Than The Sun /Screamadelica LP/ 1991
2. Creeps a keep crawlin’, drunks a keep fallin’. Teasers keep a teasein’, holy joes are preachin’. Cops just keep bustin’, hustlers keep a hustlin’. Death just keeps knockin’, souls are up for auction.
Rocks/ Give Out But Don’t Give Up LP/ 1994
3. I see your auto suggestion psychology, elimination policy. A military industrial illusion of democracy.
Swastika Eyes/ XTRMNTR LP/ 2000
4. They tore down the Berlin Wall. They let the hammer and sickle fall. They fitted me for a uniform. Had it ready the day I was born.
Detroit/ Evil Heat LP/ 2002
5. Hey rock n roll doctor, rock n roll nurse, gimme a shot, gimme some pills. I don’t need a knife, I don’t need a gun. I gotta crown made of human skull.
Suicide Sally & Johnny Guitar/ Riot City Blues LP/ 2005
6. I don’t care about tomorrow, when I feel like this today. Make a start to another’s path, that’s never been my way.
It’s Alright, It’s OK/ More Light LP/ 2013
7. There’s a factory that’s empty, no one works there anymore. Down the street of broken families. Dreams are in the trash.
Autumn In Paradise/ Chaosmosis LP/ 2016
