bands that somehow relate to the mary chain:
T.Rex - the JAMC sometimes sound a bit like T.Rex, like in "snakedriver". Legendary.
Buzzcocks - The early JAMC sometimes remind you of B.
Primal Scream - Singer Bobby Gillespie was once the JAMC's drummer.
John Moore's expressway - Yet another ex-drummer.
Einstürzende Neubauten - The JAMC sampled them on "tumbledown" from Honey's Dead.
My Bloody Valentine - Feedback/Pop band also on Creation records
The Doors - The JAMC do a cover version of "Who Do You Love"
Bo Diddley - As above + the jam "Bo Diddley Is Jesus" on Barbed Wire Kisses
Sindy Kills Me - Swedish pop band, I think. Anyway the name is a song by the JAMC.
The Pastels - one of the very first feedback/pop bands in the world! MAJOR influence!!
