The Black Angels

 

2026 marks the 20th anniversary of the band’s debut album,Passover(2006), a now-classicrecord that helped define the 21st-century psych revival. To celebrate, The Black Angels-AlexMaas (vocals/bass), Christian Bland (guitar), Stephanie Bailey (drums), Jake Garcia (guitar),and Misti Hamrick (bass) are returning to the road to perform the album in full, along with theirgreatest hits.

Formed in Austin, Texas in 2004, The Black Angels have become one of the most influentialbands of the modern psychedelic rock movement. Drawing inspiration from forebears such asSyd Barrett, Roky Erickson, Arthur Lee, and The Velvet Underground, the band crafts a soundthat is both reverent to the genre’s roots and fiercely forward-looking, hypnotic, heavy, political,and immersive.

Beyond their own recordings, the band’s impact on the global psychedelic community iscemented by their role as founders of Austin Psych Fest, one of the world’s most importantgatherings for psychedelic, experimental, and underground music.

Following albums such asDeath Song(2017) andWilderness of Mirrors(2022) on PartisanRecords, The Black Angels continue to evolve while remaining unmistakably themselves: aband that channels the spirit of classic psychedelia into a dark, modern, and deeply powerfulform.

GHOSTWOMAN
Despite ‘Hindsight Is 50/50’ being the third album from GHOSTWOMAN in 18 months, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Evan Uschenko believes that this is the first album that “finally captures the true nature of the band”. The album was recorded mostly live in three days at the analogue Kerwax studios in Brittany, France by Christophe Chavanon (The Good Damn). Uschenko states that “the first two albums were never meant to be albums: they are like pages from diaries that have long since been burned. With the introduction of Ille van Dessel as co-writer/drummer, the project feels like it has a direction”. Overall, there is a darker, denser feel compared to previous releases, but the sound and vibe of this album is more akin to what the project was supposed to be when it started in 2016, finally realising GHOSTWOMAN’s creative vision.
