Primal Scream are back with their greatest rock and roll record yet, Riot City Blues. Recorded in just 10 days last June, it was laid down live on the studio floor at Olympic Studios in London by Bobby Gillespie on vocals; Andrew Innes on guitars, banjo & mandolin; Martin Duffy on piano, harmonium, hammond b-3 organ & harmonica; Gary 'Mani' Mounfield on bass and Robert Young on guitars & harmonica.

They were joined by the incredible Will Sergeant from Echo & The Bunnymen who played lead guitar on When The Bomb Drops; Warren Ellis of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds who played fiddle in Hell's Comin' Down and Alison Mosshart from The Kills who sang backing vocals on more than a few songs and duets with Bobby on Dolls.
