Experience the timeless rock'n'roll mastery of The Jesus and Mary Chain with the 25th-anniversary edition of their iconic album, "Munki." This special vinyl release has been meticulously remastered by Pete Maher, known for his work with legends like The Rolling Stones, Jack White, and Liam Gallagher. Originally released on June 2nd, 1998, "Munki" represents a pivotal moment in the band's history, making it a must-have for fans and collectors alike.

Album Highlights:

"Munki" encapsulates The Jesus and Mary Chain's musical evolution, marking both their experimental rock'n'roll prowess and their swan song before the band's break-up in 2007. This album beautifully captures the tension between noise and melody, reflecting the unique dynamic between the Reid brothers.

Across 17 tracks and a 70-minute runtime, "Munki" offers a diverse listening experience. From abrasive noise-rock epics like "Cracking Up" and "Degenerate" to fuzzed-out pop hits like "Fizzy" and the emotionally charged acoustic ballad "Never Understood," the album showcases the band's multifaceted talents.

The Reid brothers, with their unmistakable Glaswegian snarls and unapologetic lyrics, provide raw and rebellious energy throughout the record. Their lyrical highlights touch on themes of rebellion and non-conformity, making "Munki" an authentic representation of the band's ethos.

The album also features two remarkable guest appearances. Hope Sandoval from Mazzy Star returns for a mesmerizing duet on "Perfume," blending menace and bittersweetness in a unique way. Linda Reid, the Reid brothers' younger sister known as Sister Vanilla, lends her beautiful vocals to "Moe Tucker's" motorik proto-punk scuzz, adding depth to the album's sonic landscape.
