Barbed Wire Kisses (B-Sides and More) is a compilation album by the Scottish alternative rock band, The Jesus and Mary Chain. It was released on April 18, 1988 by Blanco Y Negro Records. The album contains singles, B-sides and rare tracks. Throughout the 1980's the band was known for their prodigious output in these formats, often in limited editions which quickly went out of print. This album collects many of those releases spanning the band's career up to that point.
The band's cover of Bo Diddley's "Who Do You Love?" was used on the soundtrack to the 1988 film Earth Girls Are Easy. "Mushroom" is a cover of a Can song. "Sidewalking" was voted one of the best singles of 1988 by Musician magazine.
The title comes from a line in the song "Cherry Came Too" from the Darklands album.
