Uno dei dischi più eccentrici e bizzarri degli anni '90 sicuramente.
Gillespie lancia il suo grido primordiale verso una società in crisi come quella inglese della Tucher (dovrebbe scriversi così) e creando una perfetta fusione tra House e Pop, inventa una nuova e geniale formula che cambierà radicalmente il corso degli anni '90.
"Movin' On Up" sembra uscita da un vecchio vinile degli Stones e "Damaged" è una ballata vecchio stile capace di fronteggiare una qualsiasi lovesong alla Gallagher.
Non mancano follie e assurdità come la lunghissima ed incredibilmente ripetitiva "Come Together", ma il fatto stesso che i Primal abbiano osato con una tale naturalezza e tranqullità mosse del genere, è la piena dimostrazione di quanto stiano avanti rispetto allo stagnante conformismo dei "fratellini burrascosi" o di qualsiasi altra noiosa realtà del tanto famigerato Brit-pop.

01 Movin' on Up (03:50)
I was blind, now I can see
You made a believer, out of me
I was blind, now I can see
You made a believer, out of me
Chorus
I'm movin' on up now
Gettin' out of the darkness
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
I was lost, now I'm found
I believe in you, I've got no bounds
I was lost, now I'm found
I believe in you, I got no bounds
I'm movin' on up now
Gettin' out of the darkness
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
Repeat Chorus
I'm getting outta darkness
My light shines on
I'm getting outta darkness
My light shines on
02 Slip Inside This House (05:16)
Finer worlds that you uncover
Plant the path you want to roam
Live where you're heart can be given
And your life starts to unfold
You think you can't you wish you could
I know you can, I wish you would
Trip inside this house as you pass by
Trip inside this house as you pass by
If your limbs begin dissolving
In the water that you tread
All surroundings are evolving
In the stream that clears your head
Come disciples to thee unending
Subtleties of rhythm power
Trip inside this house as you pass by
Sweep the shadows from your eyes
Sweep the realm of dark aside
Trip inside this house as you pass by
Trip inside this house as you pass by
03 Don't Fight It, Feel It (06:53)
Gonna dance to the music all night long
Gettin' high, gettin' happy gettin' gone
Gonna dance to the music all night long
Gettin' up, gettin' down, gonna get it on
Gonna live the life I love
I'm gonna love the life I live
Gonna get high
Gonna dance to the music all night long
Gettin' high, gettin' happy gettin' gone
Gonna dance to the music all night long
Gettin' up, gettin' down, gonna get it on
Gonna live the life I love
I'm gonna love the life I live
Gonna get high
Gonna get high 'til the day I die
Rama lama lama fa fa fa
Gonna get high 'til the day I die
Rama lama lama fa fa fa
Gonna get high 'til the day I die
Rama lama lama fa fa fa
Gonna get high 'til the day I die
04 Higher Than the Sun (03:38)
My brightest star's my inner light let it guide me
Experience and innocence bleed inside me
Hallucinogens can open me or untie me
I drift in inner space, free of time
I find a higher state of grace, in my mind
I'm beautiful
I wasn't born to follow
I live just for today, don't care about tomorrow
What i've got in my head you can't buy, steal or borrow
I believe in live and let live
I believe you get what you give
I've glimpsed, I have tasted, fantastical places
My soul's an oasis, higher than the sun
I'm higher than the sun
06 Come Together (10:21)

We are together, we are unified
And all for the cause
Because together we got power
Apart we got power

07 Loaded (07:02)
(Dialogue: The Wild Angels, Peter Fonda's Character)
Just what is it that you want to do?
We wanna be free
We wanna be free to do what we wanna do
And we wanna get loaded
And we wanna have a good time
That's what we're gonna do
No way baby lets go
We're gonna have a good time
We're gonna have a party
I don't wanna lose your love (4x)
Just what is it you wanna do?
I'm gonna get deep down, deep down
I said, (I'm gonna get deep down) deep down
Woo hey!
We wanna be free to do what we wanna do
Let's go!
I don't wanna lose your love (2x)
We wanna be free to do what we wanna do
Ahhh yeah
08 Damaged (05:39)
Sweet summer days
When I was feeling so fine
Just you and me girl
Was a beautiful time
Oh yeah
Said I felt so happy
My my my
I was through with doubt and pain
All the love I felt hadn't been in vain
Got damaged
I got damaged
I got damaged
I lost myself in you
I'd wake up beside you
You'd hold me in your arms
Nothing and nobody's gonna do me
Any harm oh yeah
Said I felt so happy
My my my
And the way I felt inside
Made me feel so glad to be alive
Got damaged
I got damaged
I got damaged
I lost myself in you
Do do doo
I'd never felt so happy
Do do doo
I'd never felt so happy
Do do doo
I'd never felt so happy
I'll never feel that way again
No, no, no, no, no, no
My my my
People can be precious
But they ain't for keeping
I got too possessive
But souls ain't for stealing
You were my addiction
I got strung out and crazy
Hit me like a fever
When you left me baby
Stone, stone, stone in love with you
I was stone, stone, stone in love with you
I was stone, stone, stone in love with you
I was stone, stone, stone in love with you
(Repeat to end)

Di Mr. Wolf
"Screamadelica fu molto ma molto di più dell'album che ha unito il rock alla dance."
"Il vero capolavoro di Screamadelica è 'Higher Than The Sun', una sinfonia dub onirica e sognante."
Di telespallabob771
È infinitamente dolce immergersi in un passato nebuloso, fatto più di sensazioni che di ricordi ormai cancellati nel tempo dalla distrazione della memoria.
Smetterò di amarti. Il mio limite. Sarò sempre in grado di inseguirti, di prenderti, mai di tenerti.
Di Battlegods
“Screamadelica è precisamente quella razza di Eden sonoro.”
“Higher Than The Sun è il vero zenit dell’era rave.”
Di Conteverde
Screamadelica è stato il risveglio dall'incubo sexy e rovente di Bobby Gillespie.
Well, we wanna be free, we wanna be free to do what we wanna do.
