A Classic Album - Defines an Era - By: Dr Dream, 17 Dec 2008 
This is a truly great album - the production is good but quite raw when compared to 'modern standards' - However, the innocence of the era shines though to create an interesting journey through the second summer of love.
Definatly in the top 10 of all time - By: vincent brain, 07 Mar 2008 
Beautiful dance/rave culture/trance/pop/rock n roll euphoria.
this is an epic album, of gigantic proportions
the opener 'Movin on up' is a 70's rock style track with help from a gospel choir, jazz piano & chirpy guitars. then comes 'slip inside this house'. although not written by the scream, the bass guitar & percussion are beautiful, a gloomy yet booming song. 'Dont fight it feel it' is the most uplifting song ive heard. it plays into your brain & any fan of music will appreciate the singing.
the the highlight of the album 'higher than the sun' is a dub epic. althouugh on 4mins long it reallly will knock you socks off, i cant express just how cool & ice this song is, you have to hear it to realise ther beauty.
other key tracks are 'Loaded' a very famous rock song, a classy gem & 'come together' which is absolutely genius, second only to 'higher than the sun'. & 'damaged' i feel is forgotten about for this is acoustic guitar & piano, make the vocals sound beautiful
BUY THIS ALBUM, OR YOU WILL MISS OUT
Impressive blend of styles - By: Pieter, 15 Dec 2007 
This was one of the best albums of 1991, at least as rated by the critics. The music certainly represents a breathtaking array of influences, styles & textures that is well enough integrated for a cohesive musical statement.
Movin' On Up is a soulful slab of rock with lovely female vocals, whilst the next two are psychedelic trance-dance pieces. Slip Inside This House being more straight-forward tribal dance whilst Don't Fight It Feel It is a trippy, trancey number with quirky burbling synths.
Higher Than The Sun is a slower number with atmospheric soundscapes whilst Inner Flight is even slower & more ambient with some dreamy vocals. Come Together is a mid tempo rhythmic track built around a male vocal speech followed later by oneiric female vocals.
The tribal rhythms reappear on the long track Loaded with its mildly amusing spoken intro, appealing melody line, voice samples & bursts of sound. A drastic change in sound & tempo comes with the gentle balllad Damaged, firmly in the rock tradition with great guitars & sensitive piano.
The next one, I'm Coming Down, is even slower & more laid-back with mournful sax, an apt description of the process named in the title. The penultimate track, Higher Than The Sun: A Dub Symphony, contains more atmospheric sounds & spacious vocals than the earlier version, & the album concludes with Shine Like Stars, a shimmering slow psychedelic number.
It's very difficult not to compare this album with psychedelic masterpieces from the past, like Love's Forever Changes, the 1960s psychedelia of the Stones, Beatles, Pink Floyd & Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix. Fans of Screamadelica should definitely also investigate the work of the ambient tribal house UK band Astralasia.
screamadelica - one big scream - By: S. Saffaf, 27 Oct 2007 
This is (in my opinion) the best Primal Scream album ever made. The first song 'moving on up' kicks starts this energising album, which is one of the best from the 90's. 'Slip inside this house' is also, a great & funky song which basicallly sums up the whole of this abum: GREAT IN EVERY WAY
Screamin' good! - By: A. M. Salmon, 14 Jul 2007 
An absolute must-have in any collection. I can still distinctly remember stopping in my tracks on first hearing 'LOADED' - absolutely brilliant!! Ask anyone who partied in the 'nineties' i bet a 95% have this album! If they don't - they should!
