Honey’s Dead

Description

More Info

Again working with Alan Moulder but now also using a live drummer on most tracks — namely Monti from Curve, one of the Mary Chain’s many descendants — the Reids came back strong with Honey’s Dead, on balance a more consistent and satisfying record than Automatic. There’s a sense of greater creativity with the arrangements, while the balance between blasting static rampage and precise, almost clinical delivery is the finest yet, making the album as a whole the best straight-through listen since Psychocandy.
