Austin, TX legends The Black Angels are releasing their brand new album Wilderness of Mirrors on September 16th via Partisan Records. Today, the band are sharing their newest single Firefly - a ‘60s French pop homage which features the sultry intonations in both French and English from Thievery Corporation’s LouLou Ghelichkani.
It’s been five years since The Black Angels released an album and Wilderness of Mirrors marks a triumphant return. 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.
The band's global influence is solidified by their beloved, long-running Levitation Festival, the veritable ground zero for the genre’s past, present and future -- celebrating its 15th anniversary this year.
