XTRMNTR (Transparent Red 2LP)
When Primal Scream released XTRMNTR in 2000, the band delivered one of the most uncompromising and forward-looking albums of their career. Issued as the final album on Alan McGee’s legendary Creation Records, it was a fittingly fearless closing statement for the label: a volatile collision of rock, electronic music, dub, noise and radical studio experimentation that remains singular more than two decades later.
Newly mastered by Matt Colton at Metropolis Studios, London, under the supervision of Bobby Gillespie and Andrew Innes, this definitive edition brings renewed focus and power to a landmark period in Primal Scream’s catalog.
Alongside the complete original XTRMNTR track sequence, the collection features a carefully curated selection of B-sides and rarities from the band’s prolific 1997–2002 era, including two previously unreleased recordings.
Augmented by newly commissioned liner notes from acclaimed author Darran Anderson, this edition offers a fascinating view into one of Primal Scream’s most adventurous and influential creative periods.
