The Black Angels - Snake In The Grass

Stupid youtube wont do the whole song.
The song is really 16:13
But i had to cut it off half way.
The picture of the girl was from Metin Demiralay to see more from him: scarabuss.deviantart.co­m
& I did not know that the first picture i used is a cover for The Black Ryder's 2009 album. And they are really good too!
Vary interesting.

Maybe the most extraordinary thing about this band to me that is NEVER mentioned is that the vocalist is CLEARLY possessed by the spirit of Jim Morrison, it's absolutely uncanny the devotion to Morrison's inimitable swaying and swagger from one note to the next and his unique phrasing in drawing out words. In classical music the term is "appoggiatura," of starting one note, holding it, and then swaying into another note. I hear the Velvets and Spacemen3, both bands I adored, that everyone everwhere always cites, but the Morrison thing is huge, and inhabits nearly every one of their songs. Very powerful. If you close your eyes and concentrate on his voice, You Will Hear The Doors.

Yes, the bass lines in their music are beyond the pale--really something!

Loved Jim Morrison when I was growing up--and old! This band's sound is the one I'll carry to the proverbial island with me, along with the music of Gorecki and Beethoven.

I had a coworker who sold his entire lp collection of Jethro tull for peanuts, dirt cheap, cos his preacher told him that was the devil´s music. I made it to the room when he had already closed the deal. However, I still tried to reason with him, but he was too brainwashed. So... I asked him what other good collection he had, and if he asked his preacher about them. :P
