Primal Scream is the second album by Scottish indie rock band Primal Scream. Released in 1989 (see 1989 in music) it took a harder rock approach than their debut album Sonic Flower Groove and did not achieve great success. However, the song "I'm Losing More Than I'll Ever Have" was later remixed to provide the breakthrough single "Loaded" that appeared on their much celebrated third album Screamadelica.
