Jesus and Mary Chain\u2019s new album\u00a0\u2018Glasgow Eyes\u2019\u00a0represents a remarkable achievement some 40 years into their career. Released in March by Fuzz Club, it debuted at #7 on the UK Official Album Chart and became their highest charting and most highly acclaimed album since their classic\u00a0\u2018\u2018Darklands\u2019\u00a0set back in 1987.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now The Jesus and Mary Chain keep\u00a0\u2018Glasgow Eyes\u2019\u00a0in the spotlight by sharing the new video for Silver Strings<\/em>. It\u2019s a track which Pitchfork picked as the album\u2019s best moment, \u201ca lithe slice of nocturnal new wave that illustrates the benefits of favouring synths over six strings: It floats, unencumbered by earthly notions.<\/em>\u201d Meanwhile, MOJO stated that it \u201ccast JAMC as the house band at a David Lynch sad disco \u2013 a role they were born into.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Silver Strings<\/em> video features Izzy Glaudini from the Los Angeles band Automatic and was directed by Ambar Navarro (Weyes Blood, The Lemon Twigs). The video was filmed in Los Angeles by Navarro and Max Flicks, and in Berlin by Carolina Romillo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coming months will see The Jesus and Mary Chain play a rare headline tour of Australia and New Zealand, with select European headline shows scattered amongst a summer festival schedule that takes them as far afield as New Zealand and Japan.
