Primal Scream 'Totally Disgusted' After 'Rocks' Is Used At Conservative Party Conference

Primal Scream have said they are “totally disgusted” after the Tories used one of their songs at the Conservative Party Conference.

The track, 'Rocks', was used as Home Secretary Theresa May left the stage following her speech in Manchester.

In a statement issued to Q, Primal Scream said they were “totally opposed to the coalition government” and accused them of passing laws in favour of big business.

It said: "Primal Scream are totally disgusted that the Home Secretary Theresa May ended her speech at the Tory party conference with our song 'Rocks'. How inappropriate. Didn't they research the political history of our band?

“Hasn't she listened to the words? Does she even know what getting your rocks off means? No. She is a Tory; how could she?”

The band added: “We would like to distance ourselves from this sick association. The Tories are waging a war on the disenfranchised. They are the enemy."

Primal Scream after not the first band to be left frustrated by their music appearing at a party conference.

Keane also expressed outrage when the Conservatives used one of their songs before the general election last year.
