Based in Austin, Texas, home to the SXSW festival, and named after The Velvet Underground track ‘The Black Angel’s Death Song’, it was only a matter of time before this psychedelic six piece started making waves. The Black Angels cook up a frazzled death march in the spirit of Spacemen 3 and The Doors as ‘The First Vietnamese War’ kicks in. ‘You gave a gift to me, in my young age, you send me over sea and put the fear in me’, building in dark layers, accentuating the ‘ Now’ tale. ‘We got off that boat, Charlies everywhere, a lot of killing and dieing and no one seems to care 60,000 men died, while you all hid, you came into our home and took our kids, and you ask for more now, for this new war’. Iraq The Horror.
