Psychocandy
The Jesus And Mary Chain

Kinda in line with Craig, here. The vibe is great. There's shades of The Velvet Underground in here, but it always seems to avoid the total experimental excess in favor of shorter, poppier songs. I wish I remembered more of them, but yeah that first track is a real standout. Still can't believe I saw them at Lolapalooza '92 in the middle of the day. I can imagine that had I first experienced them (and their big hair) in a darkened club they would have had a much greater impact on me. Nonetheless, I need to do a deeper dive on this band at some point.
