Brian Jonestown Massacre April 27, 2012

Named in tribute to the legendary Rolling Stones guitarist and his influence in introducing Eastern culture and music into the world of Western rock & roll, the Brian Jonestown Massacre formed in San Francisco, CA, in 1990. Some 40 different members passed through the group's ranks over the next half-decade, but their focal point always remained singer/guitarist Anton Newcombe, who along with bassist Matt Hollywood, guitarist Dean Taylor, organist Mara Regal, accordionist Dawn Thomas, drummer Brian Glaze, and "Spokesman for the Revolution" Joel Gion recorded the Massacre's 1995 shoegazer-influenced debut LP, Methodrone. In 2008, the band reinvented itself with My Bloody Underground, featuring yet another lineup and a hint of shoegaze.
