Concert Preview: The Black Angels, Black Moth Super Rainbow and Vietnam @ The Brillobox Wednesday April 4th
The Brillobox will
host what is practically a stoner feast this coming Wednesday April 4th with
The Black Angels,
Black Moth Super
Rainbow and VietNam.
The Black Angels and VietNam play a somewhat similar style of eerie, rock and
blues with psychedelic drone. VietNAm are a bit more rootsy rock/blues while
The Black Angels have a bit more of a Stone Roses swagger and aura to them.
They are obviously compared to a lot of 60's era bands with the most common
comparison being the Velvet Underground. Austin's The Black Angels even go as
far as to use a stylized image of Nico as their icon.
Black Moth Super Rainbow are from Pittsburgh and make beautiful groovy music
that takes you on a voyage with it. If you are from Pittsburgh and don't know
what a Black Moth Super Rainbow is - shame on you. Granted getting a band photo
is like getting a picture of KISS without the makeup in the 70's. They've been
raved about in music magazines and blogs and even had this recent blurb in the
New
York Times.
