Atlanta psychedelic punk rockers The Black Lips dropped their sixth album Two Million Thousand yesterday. If you're familiar with their Byrds-meets-Blitz stylings than this is just a gentle reminder to go buy the new album, because it's a steady continuation of everything you already love about these guys.
If you don't know about these guys, then make a note and go check them out.
Their last album, Good, Bad, Not Ugly (Vice Records), is a modern classic, and I don't throw that term around lightly. It's walks the line between detail-oriented neo-garage-psych ("I Saw a Ghost") and humorous irreverance ("How Do You Tell a Child That Someone Has Died").
Here's a pretty choice cut off the new album:
Starting Over - Black Lips
If you like it, buy it. Spend $10 to support good artists.
