Psychedelic rock is just so great.

[@suzylux]

+Aldrich Dinglasan uh huh. some of my favourite driving music.

[@sloth61]

+Suzy Lux Just don't mix psychedelic drugs with driving. Enjoy the music responsibly. Love live psych!

[@nondemarco5863]

+John Smith l approve of your think.

[@Strings-jg2to]

Check out 'Calico' by Fever the Ghost. Their music is really trippy.

This is my favorite band of ALL time. I feel like I'm being reborn into to a high intelligent laid back chill ass flower child.

[@m.arturoh.g.6991]

yeah right but In our era

[@Creed_fan_69]

Omg yes you’re so intelligent!

[@theloniouscoltrane3778]

You're just excited. This kind of music was all over the place in the 60s70s80s.

[@Waldemar_la_Tendresse]

They are heavily underrated, so are other awesome bands.

[@jaybone23]

With a name like The Black Angels, your music HAS to sound like this, right?

[@jereuter01]

[@joshuamiller125]

Listen to the black angel death song by velvet underground,, direct reference to their lineage of rock music

[@derekstitt7215]

I'm surprised it took this long for a band to name themselves that. It's such a great name lol

[@WildBoy4FunTime]

@@derekstitt7215 But there's quiet some bands with "black" in their name like The Black Keys, The Black Crowes, etcetera...

[@bitchois]

"Illness, madness and death. These are the black angels that have followed me from cradle to grave for all my life" Edvard Munch, I think I saw an interview that was their inspiration.

[@jameslappin77]

KEXP should do vinyl releases of their shows. Beautiful Black Angels set.

[@edwardareinamo704]

Psychedelic band. The most big band in the actuality in my opinion...

[@MegaCirse]

I used to listen to this and sit in my living room to watch my plants grow, they were healthy plants! I think my plants liked this music too 🌹🌿

[@creightonleerose582]

Nice!...They certainly love n' flourish with muzik of all sorts dont they?

[@StaticXtreme444]

These guys are amazing. I saw them some years back in Portland and their set was completely dark and they started playing Empire and Alex emerged out of this fog they had going all over the stage and started singing and it was so piercing and hollow. It was the most bone chilling spine tingling thing I've ever experienced.

[@Creed_fan_69]

What do you mean by hollow?

[@stavesmcdaves9144]

I bet it was amazing to have the atmosphere set like that and open with Empire, such a great fn song.

[@VelvetGreen1994]

great engineers + great bands = KEXP

[@garycallaghan508]

The Black Angels keeping the music evil. This band is spot on. I love these guys.

[@atxatxatxatx]

KEXP does not disappoint and the Black Angels still blow my mind. Match made in heaven.

[@jase276]

Dude has a very interesting voice. Love it

[@krevo81]

Really Grace Slick-ish imho (at least on this recording)

[@MrCoacherable]

@@krevo81 yep, same thought

[@alexguy5908]

Hands down the best band I have heard in ages

[@pavelot.surbahar]

Me too....

[@theunnamed89]

Listen to King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard and Thee Oh Sees. Both bands have KEXP presentations.

[@jormangrunge]

oh beautiful nature

[@nofutur5102]

Oh my! Let’s fuckin go!

[@K4Fusion]

Great sound, great vocalist! The Doors meets Jefferson Airplane meets The Who. Love the sizzle of the Rickenbacker on "Don't Play With Guns!"

[@derekstitt7215]

That's what I thought. Alex has the grit of Morrison mixed with the amazing control of grace. Love it so much

This is one of those bands that I really, really fuckin' like so much that I don't wanna share it with nobody.

[@Alniemi]

The drummer fucking KILLS IT! Saw them live tonight in Trousdale, and WOW did primus choose a good opener! I hope to see great things coming in the future from these guys. I really liked how the bass and drums were turned up higher at the show tonight, I hope you can highlight them a bit more in the future!

[@derekstitt7215]

They opened for Primus!?!?! That's so awesome! I think The Black Angels and The Claypool Lennon Delirium would be a crazy show

[@kmin494]

his voice is literally cutting the air around me

[@davidmeekma3354]

Best live band I've seen in 20 years... Multi-instrumentalists, an understanding of the history of psychedelia, tempo changes, no bs on stage---they just play song after song. I prefer the darker stuff on Passover and Directions, but their new stuff is good as well. I find it very hard to believe they are on such a small independent label. Some A&R d-bag certainly missed out on these guys! I've seen them 5 times in the last 4 years and their last show in Costa Mesa, CA was insane!. The pit was going nuts, body passing, stage diving, and some good old kicks to the head by the bouncers... I have not seen a real pit like that since Bad Brains. Rock it people! Eventually people will get it. There's nothing wrong with following your mission... If people follow great; if not, they don't know what they are missing. The average American is an idiot, so please write for those of us who aren't... Also, your parents must have been incredibly cool, because your musical tastes go way further that your average twenty something... Good luck, you guys saved the current music scene for me. I used to be in the merch business. Good luck gentlemen David

[@gimmefive2255]

So fucking hard forcing myself NOT to listen to this during the daytime else I won't get any damn thing done. Trip all day or be productive..that literally is the hardest question of my daily life.

Stumbled on this band after watching the pilot episode of "True Detective" (Episode ends with "Young Men Dead"). HAD to follow up on them. One of my new favorite bands by far. Absolutely blown away. I've been a die-hard Growlers fan (beach goth) but these guys are threatening to take the title.

[@kbuzz101]

i got into the Black Angels and the Growlers at about the same time 5 years ago.. been trying to help both get popular, although the Growlers have been falling off a bit, too many drugs I think

[@BrittanyJade503]

I agree, although I just heard "Monotonia" and "California" recently on KZbin and was pleasantly surprised.

Perfect! I thought exactly the same, and also hear a lot of Pink Floyd in there.

[@justinparis4589]

Elton Sdl Pink Floyd, correct. The guitar player, Christian Bland, has a side project that does a lot of Floyd covers. They recently played a show in Austin Texas on Syd Barrett's birthday, playing nothing but songs from 'Piper at the Gates'.

[@SonicRave1]

Cant forget about The Doors!
