INTERVIEW: ANDREW INNES, PRIMAL SCREAM – February 2018

INTERVIEW: ANDREW INNES, PRIMAL SCREAM – February 2018
By Shane Pinnegar

Genre-fluid Scottish band, Primal Scream, have contorted easily from psych-pop to Stonesy rock to electronica throughout their 35-year career, with guitarist Andrew Innes there alongside frontman Bobby Gillespie for almost all of that time.

The band’s forthcoming Australian tour is their first visit to our shores in two-albums-plus-five-and-a-bit years.

“Yeah, so they tell us,” Innes says affably about the time since their triumphant 2012 tour, before laughing, “I think last time we played some of the new stuff but it hadn’t been released yet so no-one knew what the hell it was! So it’ll be good to play them again and have some people know the songs.”
