Dude. That is... Ridiculousness.
Haha. Actually I think the Pixies exposed a lot of people to JAMC with that cover, like Nirvana exposed folks to the Vaselines. Before all this reunion-era bullshit started eating indie rock, back when Pitchfork was in its infancy, the Jesus & Mary Chain were not exactly being remembered as well as many of their contemporarie, or the bands they influenced (like, say, the fucking Pixies or Dinosaur jr).
Everyone seemed to have heard of Hüsker Dü and the Mats, but JAMC was getting a good deal less credit. Too hard on the ears, maybe.
