Clear Lake Forest

The Black Angels

Seven tracks of noir-tinted psychedelia. A leaner, more melodic side of the band that trades their usual wall-of-sound for eerie, atmospheric space.

It's like a 1960s spy movie soundtrack if the spy was on a lot of acid.

A cool, detached mystery that feels both vintage and timelessly eerie.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The hypnotic, repetitive drum pulse on 'Sunday Evening' that feels like a heartbeat in a quiet room.
The way 'Linda’s Gone' stretches into a six-minute psychedelic sprawl, letting the fuzz guitars breathe and dissolve.
The sharp, jagged guitar riff of 'The Flop' cutting through the hazy production like a sudden realization.
