Death Song

Death Song

The Black Angels â€“ Austinâ€™s psych rock masters â€“ have confirmed details for their upcoming album, â€˜Death Song,â€™ This will be the five-pieceâ€™s first full-length release in four years. Written and recorded in large part during the recent election cycle, the music on â€˜Death Songâ€™ serves as part protest, part emotional catharsis in a climate dominated by division, anxiety and unease. â€œCurrency,â€ a strong contender for the heaviest song the band has ever put to wax, meditates on the governing role the monetary system plays in our lives, while slow-building psychedelic earworm â€œHalf Believingâ€ questions the nature and confusing realities of devotion. Recorded between Seattle and Austin, â€˜Death Songâ€™ 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. Since forming in Austin in 2004, The Black Angels have become standard-bearers for modern psych-rock, and the New York Times has said they â€œplay psychedelic rock as if the 1960s never ended, and they are absolute masters of itâ€. The band has toured with Queens of the Stone Age, Brian Jonestown Massacre, the Black Keys + more, and played festivals such as Glastonbury, Fuji Rock, Primavera, Harvest Fest, Coachella and Bonnaroo. Two of the band members co-founded Levitation Festival (formerly Austin Psych Fest) in 2008, which has since grown into one of the best-reviewed and expertly-curated festivals in the country.
