The Screaming Blue Messiahs were a band formed in 1983 in London by Bill Carter (vocals and guitar), Chris Thompson (bass and vocals) and Kenny Harris (drums). Featuring a high-octane sound sometimes described as "rockabilly from hell" and an almost unhealthy obsession with Americana, they initially released the mini-album Good and Gone before signing to WEA. Three full-length albums followed. The first, Gun Shy, produced the single "Wild Blue Yonder," which although a minor hit, would resurface in 2006 as the closing music of an episode of FX's Rescue Me.
