Death Song is the first full-length release in four years from The Black Angels – Austin’s five-piece psych rock masters – and their debut for Partisan Records.
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. “Currency,” 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 “Half Believing” questions the nature and confusing realities of devotion.
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.
The band will tour extensively behind Death Song, including a headline set at one of the first-ever shows at new NYC venue Brooklyn Steel on May 2nd. The band will be supported by A Place to Bury Strangers.
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 “play psychedelic rock as if the 1960s never ended, and they are absolute masters of it”. 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 (returning in 2018).
I was sick and missed The Black Angels the last time they played PDX so I sure hope I win these tickets to make up for missing this awesome band the last time. Revolution Hall is such a great venue to see them at as well.
I love The Black Angels and it would be incredible to see them for the first time at Revolution Hall!
🫨 The Black Angels! I would love a chance to see them! Love their music but haven’t yet seen them live. 💖
A slice of pizza from the show bar and the magic of the black angels would not be a bad vibration!
Of all the bands on the list, they stand out as the only ones I’d want to see. Fingers crossed!
The black angels are great and would sound awesome at revolution hall. I’d love to go! Thanks!
Yep
Would love to go to this show! My husband has never seen the Black Angels. Rev Hall is one of our favorite venues.
The only time I’ve seen them, someone had puked on one of the doors at the Wonder Ballroom. This was 2011. I was due with a baby within two weeks and it was quite a test! LOL. Hopefully this time there will be no puke involved!
Not super familiar with them, but I’m down to check it out!
This black angel is somehow still on earth and needs to get back to her people!
Love this band since forever, would love to go to this show!!
