More about: The Black Angels
The Black Angels have returned with news of a new album; their seventh, it's to be titled Wilderness of Mirrors and drops in September. 'El Jardín' is our first taste of the record.
A vibrating invocation of happiness and humanness, 'El Jardín' is rather upbeat for The Black Angels, who have become known for their dark psychedelic rock. A further fourteen tracks will drop alongside it when the full album comes at the dawn of autumn.
On the attached video, director Vanessa Pla said: "Alex [Maas, vocals/bass] came to me with a dystopian sci-fi idea of a future where Mother Nature is dead because we killed her, and the only way to experience her is through virtual reality- an already relatable feeling, as most of the world lives viscerally through social media. Who knows where we will be 100 years from now."
