Since I've backed away a bit from all things Black Angeles, being that's I've seen them eight times across two continents, I think it's time get back on that Austin psych vibe. The group is back with a new album, Indigo Meadow, single, tour -- everything you every wanted.
The album will be the band's fourth studio album, the follow-up to 2010's Phosphene Dream. You can listen to a track from the new album below, "Don't Play With Guns."
"Our music has always tried to shed light on issues that may be hard to deal with or confront," says singer/guitarist Alex Maas. "If people think they can ignore the issues, they are wrong. Don't play with guns, don't touch a hot stove, don't give your child a poisonous snake, don't turn the cheek when artists are willing to discuss these issues."
Love it. It's grimy, dirty, freaky.
Producer/mixer John Congleton (David Byrne & St. Vincent, Explosions In The Sky, Clinic) helmed the album, which comes out on the Blue Horizon label.
To go with the new music, is an extensive North America tour. Tour supports comes from Allah-Las, Elephant Stone, Hanni El Khatib and Wall of Death (the french band I saw open for them when they I saw them in Brussels).
