B.R.M.C. is Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's 2001 debut album, a fairly straightforward psych rock album taking it's influences from The Jesus And Marychain, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Oasis and T Rex. Due to it's timing more than anything else they were lumped in with the Garage Rock revival of the early 2000's but they don't really share much sonically with most of those bands. There are similarities but most of the album is more remeniscent of early Verve, Ride and other Shoegaze bands of the early 90's. There's even a bit of a stone roses element here and there (particularly on "Rifles").
There's some really nice bass playing on the record, with some great sounding fuzzed up guitar, and a few bum notes left in (which I always like to hear on a record). You'll most likely have heard the Glam stomp of "Spread Your Love" and "Whatever Happened To My Rock & Roll (Punk Song)" but here's opening track "Love Burns"...
