New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The
Black Angels have shared the second track from their upcoming album 'Death Song', out April 21st on Partisan Records. Called "I'd Kill For Her", the new track just premiered via Dangerous Minds, who called the band "psychedelia's premier standard bearers." They also chatted with the band's Alex Maas about the new project, read/listen here: https://bit.ly/2ncZJgb
Produced by Phil Ek (Father John Misty, Fleet Foxes, The Shins), 'Death Song' features some of the heaviest music these psych rockers have ever put to wax - slow-burning, menacing fuzz earworms meditating on the realities of society and devotion. The album's opening track, "Currency", has already earned raves everywhere from the New York Times to NPR Music, who say "heavy psych rarely feels as fresh as it does with The
Black Angels".
