:I love the Mary Chain too, and he does seem to like Psychocandy for what it is: "the two elements of their soundthe noise and the popnot really integrated at all".  His main objection is "But when JAMC stripped away the torrential head rush to leave their songs exposed, what remain was pure blank homage." 

 :Nevertheless, my favorite Mary Chain song happens to be "Head On".  Yes, even with the shitty synthesized bassline.  Get a real bass player, fuckers.
