Austin’s psych-rock legends Black Angeles will release their brand new album Wilderness of Mirrors on September 16 with Partisan Records. Today, the band has revealed the experimental single “Firefly”, a ‘60s French pop homage that features the sultry intonations in both French and English from Thievery Corporation’s LouLou Ghelichkani. Check out the swingin’ cinematic new single we’re digging below…
The most impactful music reflects a wide-screen view of the world back at us, helping distill the universal into something far more relatable. The Black Angels have become standard-bearers for modern psych-rock that does exactly that, which is one of many reasons why the group’s new album feels so aptly named. It has been 5 years since fans have been treated to an album from the band and Wilderness of Mirrors marks a triumphant return with their foot on the pedal. The new collection expertly refines the Black Angels’ psychedelic rock attack alongside a host of intriguing sounds and textures while political tumult, the pandemic, and the ongoing devastation of the environment have provided ample fodder for their signature sound and fierce lyrical commentary.
