    Great show by this band in Minneapolis last night. There are some shows available on archive.org. Some songs stream on their website – theblackangels.com.
    From Wikipedia:


    The Black Angels are a psychedelic rock band from Austin, Texas.
    Between October 28, 2008 and November 2, 2008, the band performed as Roky Erickson’s backing band on the West Coast; future plans between Roky and The Black Angels are in the works.

    The group’s debut LP Passover was generally well received in the underground independent rock community and was noted for its dark tones and lyrical content. A review of Passover described them as “Walking in the shadows cast by Spacemen 3 and Spiritualized mastermind Jason Pierce” and compared them to The Warlocks and Black Mountain, also invoking “dirges” reminiscent of both The Velvet Underground and the 13th Floor Elevators.

    The band’s third album, titled Phosphene Dream, was released on September 14, 2010.

    Check this band out if you get a chance.
