in Photos: The Jesus And Mary Chain w/ Buffalo Sunn – The Academy, Dublin 07/04/2017

It doesn’t seem like ten years ago since hell froze over and The Jesus And Mary Chain reconvened. The last time they played Dublin, the show was marred with sound issues and it seemed like the Reid brothers were ready to kill each other before the Psychocandy anniversary tour even began! Three years on, and it’s a very different story and there’s new life in the Mary Chain. With Damage and Joy, the band’s first release in nineteen years, the band set off on a promotional tour, finishing up in Ireland in both Dublin and Belfast.

Shaun Neary made his way to the Dublin show, armed with a bag of cameras and lenses and caught some of the action in stills, as well as some of the support from Dublin’s Buffalo Sunn.
