如果90年代有Britpop和另类摇滚，00年代有Indie Pop，那么跟The Jesus and Mary Chain / Primal Scream / My Bloody Valentine / The Soup Dragons / The Wedding Present这些乐队同期活跃的The Primitives，就可以说是80年代的Indie，归入C86一脉，还取得相当的商业成功。到90年代初众乐队的曼彻斯特化和另类舞曲化大潮包围之时，The Primitives仍旧坚持青葱手法，哪怕三专《Galore》最后滑铁卢导致乐队over掉。不过谁又想到2009年这帮老东西居然复出，到2016年止竟然出了两张新专并且老粉还能欢快地听下去呢。我不是老粉就是了，但得承认他们一点也不涂脂抹粉的青春情绪和流畅校园旋律确实盲听无压力。
《Galore》有一个很主打的开首曲《You Are The Way》，发成12寸单曲的时候，找来Robin Guthrie搞mix，起名就叫「September Mix」——Cocteau Twins的录音室就叫「September Sound」记得吧？在所有Robin给别人做的mix/remix里，这是唯一使用这个单词的。据传同专里的《Empathise》也跟Robin有关，听起来嗡嗡嗡的吉他音海倒是有点像，但所有资料都显示「produced by The Primitives & Ed Buller」，so……
和专辑本身一样，制作人是Ian Broudie，如果想不起这是谁，The Lightning Seeds的主脑啊。
You are the way
You are the light and you’re here to stay
I know your way
You steal the night and you rule the dayBaby
Ohh the places that you take me
Ohh you twist and you reshape me
Ohh I hope you never break meWords are useless
Words are empty
Words mean nothing anymore

Words say nothing
Words can only close the doorYou are the way
