Strider Posted October 19, 2017 Author Posted October 19, 2017 Still flying high from the show. Don't feel like saying much...just want to bask in the glow of the show some more. But Chris, I will say this...we got an extra song! They have been doing three song encores on this tour. Well, whether it was because of the California fires or something else, Alex came out by himself at the beginning of the encore and sang a song they have played only three times in their history and for the first time on this tour: "My Boat Is Sinking"! Fucking awesome show. Once again, the Black Angels melt my mind. Quote

Strider Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 Not many clips on YouTube from the show I went to last month. Everyone too busy rockin' to bother with their smartphones. There is only this video of "Black Grease" from the Mayan Theatre concert. The setlist for the October 18 2017 Mayan Theatre show: 1. Currency 2. Bad Vibrations 3. Prodigal Sun 4. I Dreamt 5. Medicine 6. Hunt Me Down 7. Black Grease 8. Grab As Much (As You Can) 9. Half Believing 10. Sniper At the Gates of Heaven 11. I'd Kill For Her 12. You On the Run 13. Comanche Moon 14. Life Song Encore: 15. My Boat Is Sinking - Alex Maas solo w/ guitar 16. Death March 17. Bloodhounds On My Trail 18. Young Men Dead A perfect setlist. Which makes it a perfect time to see them in concert if you haven't before. You are getting the crème de la crème from all their albums. See them pronto! Quote
Strider Posted December 16, 2017 Author Posted December 16, 2017 Now that the year is almost over, "Death Song" still is my odds-on pick to finish #1 on my Top 10 Albums of 2017 list. Only Grizzly Bear's "Painted Ruins" and Thee Oh Sees "Orc" is in the running. I think "Death Song" has also moved to the top of my favourite Black Angels album list...ahead of "Passover" and "Phosphene Dream". Quote

I watched a little of it, but was in the middle of a few things at home, so couldn't pay as much attention as I would have liked. He sounded very subdued. Thanks for the heads up Sean! Quote
Strider Posted November 15, 2021 Author Posted November 15, 2021 The Black Angels are back in town. They played Pomona Saturday night, play Hollywood tonight, and San Diego Tuesday night. Quote
