The Jesus and Mary Chain are today sharing a live version of “Half Way To Crazy” from their newly-announced ‘Sunset 666’ album, due out August 4th 2023 on Fuzz Club. Recorded live at the Hollywood Palladium in 2018, whilst the Mary Chain were touring North America in support of Nine Inch Nails, ‘Sunset 666’ is a discography-spanning set that includes tracks from “Psychocandy“, “Darklands“, “Automatic“, “Honey’s Dead“, “Stoned and Dethroned“, “Munki” and “Damage and Joy“.Originally taken from their 1989 album ‘Automatic’, you can listen to the ‘Sunset 666’ version of “Half Way To Crazy” here.
On the single, the Mary Chain said: “Side D of the ‘Sunset 666’ vinyl is taken from the December 11 2018 show at The Hollywood Palladium with Nine Inch Nails and includes a few of our favourite songs from ‘Automatic’ to play live. This version of “Half Way To Crazy” really gets the energy of that night.”Set for release on double LP vinyl, CD and digital, ‘Sunset 666’ sees the Mary Chain deliver a set of classics with a composed intensity. The album will be released the same day the Mary Chain perform at London’s Crystal Palace Bowl alongside Primal Scream and The Black Angels as part of this year’s South Facing Festival.
