From Damage and Joy (2017). Damage and Joy is the seventh studio album by Scottish alternative rock band the Jesus and Mary Chain, released on 24 March 2017 by Artificial Plastic Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the nearest rig we use for The Jesus and Mary Chain's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
