Brian Jonestown Massacre History
The Brian Jonestown Massacre, formed in 1990 in San Francisco, California, emerged as a prominent band in the neo-psychedelic movement. Founded by frontman Anton Newcombe, the band’s sound is a blend of 1960s psychedelia, garage rock, and shoegaze. The band’s name is a playful reference to both the infamous Jonestown massacre and the Rolling Stones’ frontman Brian Jones. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, they gained notoriety for their prolific output and a unique sound that pays homage to the psychedelic rock of the past while infusing it with modern sensibilities. Despite frequent lineup changes, Newcombe has remained the constant driving force behind the band. Their live performances are renowned for their raw energy and improvisational style, often leading to unpredictable and memorable shows, which helped them cultivate a loyal following. The band's 1996 album 'Take It from the Man!' and its 2003 follow-up 'Bravery, Repetition and Noise' solidified their reputation in the indie rock scene. Over the years, they have been featured in various documentaries, including the cult classic 'Dig!', which showcased their tumultuous relationship with fellow band The Dandy Warhols. This exposure brought a new wave of fans and interest in their live performances, showcasing their ability to captivate audiences with their unique sound and stage presence.
