“Swastika eyes” by Primal Scream

Primal Scream's opening shot from XTRMNTR, their sixth studio album, "Swastika Eyes" arrived on 8 November 1999, and the title alone was a gauntlet, a fine example of the band's confrontational streak in those days. It also goes by "SWSTK YS" and "War Pigs", and it's a snarling piece of electronic rock that the band have said takes aim at corporations and governments.

Bobby Gillespie, Andrew Innes, Robert Young and Martin Duffy share the writing credit, and the band recorded it themselves. The single came with two mixes, one by the Chemical Brothers and one by Jagz Kooner, and both made the album, Kooner's Spectre Mix renamed the Jagz Kooner mix. It reached number 22 in the UK, and it later turned up on the soundtrack to the 2004 film Football Factory.
