THE BLACK ANGELS – Intimate Performance Of ‘I’D KILL FOR HER’ – Top Track From Their Best Longplayer So Far…

Posted on by JL

Texan psychedelic collective THE BLACK ANGELS released this year – to my ears – their best album so far. DEATH SONG (named after a song on The Velvet Underground’s 1967 debut LP). is a gloomy work dealing with today’s bleak times wrapped in an ardent and invigorating soundtrack. Here’s one of the highlights performed intimately in the tiny
Paste Studios in New York City earlier this year. Pretty cool…

After Currency and I’d Kill For Her, two monumental crackers, Texan psych gang THE BLACK ANGELS share a third track from their upcoming, fifth, longplayer DEATH SONG,
out 21 April via their new label Partisan Records. HALF BELIEVING is a slow one and is moodier in sound & atmospherics than the two other songs but as gripping and powerful in spirit. Seems like the band is on its way to a masterpiece album. Here’s the scary clip for Half Believing…

The Texan psychedelic experts THE BLACK ANGELS just announced their fifth album DEATH SONG for a 21st April release via their new label Partisan Records. A statement on the label’s website gives more info on the new record: “Written and recorded in large part during the recent election cycle, the music on Death Song serves as part protest, part emotional catharsis in a climate dominated by division, anxiety and unease. Recorded between Seattle and Austin, ‘Death Song’ features production from Phil Ek (Father John Misty, Fleet Foxes, The Shins). The 11-track collection offers a sharply honed elaboration on their signature sound – menacing fuzz guitar and cutting wordplay, steeped in a murky hallucinatory dream. ”

And here’s the first single CURRENCY . A song that meditates on the governing role the monetary system plays in our lives. Sonically it’s a monumental rollercoaster with heavy, electrifying orchestration creating an adventurous, epic feel. A huge masterstroke…
