The Jesus And Mary Chain with April Skies from their second album Darklands.
Formed around the songwriting partnership of the brothers William and Jim Reid the band took The Beach Boys, The Velvet Underground, The Sex Pistols, Duane Eddy and a heaped teaspoon of feedback and put them in a blender.
The result was a dark brooding noise with a pop core, violence, riots at gigs, controversy, a brotherly fall out and finally reconciliation.

I liked the Jesus and Mary Chain. I'm very selective on which Scots bands I like. The bigger the American influence the better really. Oooops! you might get a few comments in reply to that.
