Of the Post Punk bands of the 80’s, The Jesus and Mary Chain producing some of the most hauntingly beautiful of the era. Their debut album (Psychocandy) was an amalgamation of Pop brilliance, lyrical introspection and a heavy dose of feedback and echoes; the latter, proving to be especially distinctive. It was a spectacular album which garnered them critical acclaim around the world and would later spawn many imitators. Future albums would show different elements of the band though they would never achieve that level of critical acceptance again. Should the Hall ever look take a hard look at true British Alternative music there might be a shot at induction, but the odds on that seem remote.
