Jesus and Mary Chain Premiere ‘Silver Strings’ Video

Jesus and Mary Chain have premiered a video for ‘Silver Strings ahead of their Australian tour in August.

‘Silver Strings’ is from the eighth Jesus and Mary Chain album ‘Glasgow Eyes’, the band’s first album since 2017 and featuring 12 new songs by Jesus and Mary Chain co-foudners, brothers William and Jim Reid.

The Reid’s biography ‘Never Understood’ is coming August 15.

It sees William and Jim Reid tell the full story of one of Britain’s greatest guitar bands for the very first time – a wildly funny and improbably moving chronicle of brotherly strife, feedback, riots, drug and alcohol addiction, eternal outsiders and extreme shyness, that also somehow manages to be a love letter to the Scottish working-class family.
