Black Angels last night

Bit of a mixed bag but for the best part very very good and different from on record... I'd actually forgotten how many good songs they had (as they didn't play some of the ones i wanted) and it was enough to forgive their couple of slips into drone-psychedelic-jam territory. The main guy's voice had a great prescence (talking to them after the guitarist said that the singer works with scientists to do experiments with the pitch of the voice , very complicated!). They also did the Trail Of Dead thing where they switched instruments almost every song, four of the five played drums and bass at some point, some songs had three guitars, some had one, kept things interesting, and they matched Trail of Dead for volume defintely! Much recommended...

did she seem unreasonably randy?

and did they look like the might play a Doors cover at the end if I called for it, cos I bet you my trainfare they play them in rehearsals


im seeing them on sunday

at the fleece on bristol


..and me!

I CANNOT wait! I saw them in Bristol last year when they were supposed to be supporting BRMC....but BRMC had to cancel due to ill health. One quick venue chance later (moving to the Thekla) and they got their own headline gig with Peter Hayes from BRMC as support instead (an acoustic set by him)! Amazing night.

I had their album along with a bonus ep in the post today, all the way from the States. What GORGEOUS packaging. Everyone buy it!


yeah looking forward to it, even though i have an exam the next day

if you like Black angels: check out singapore sling (icelandic band) very good too


Yep...

...I know of them and have loved what I've heard. Not actually got any albums of theirs yet though. Bean meaning to for ages...


just back from the bristol show

yeah it was a good show, it was quite short, *possibly due to some electrical issue before they came on.but thoroughly enjoyable

Lots off the first album which was nice to hear.Nice climatic ending.

P.s And the drummer was hot,

pps some band photographer too


Yep

Fantastic gig indeedy!

Drummer and photographer, both hot! hehe.
