Black Moth Super Rainbow to tour with
Flaming Lips in September, Aesop Rock in October
Black Moth Super Rainbow |
"A lot of neo-psych bands get the trippiness right, but can't find that magical mix of tunefulness and sonic invention that makes listeners want to take their trip more than once. On Black Moth Super Rainbow's third album, Dandelion Gum, the mysterious Pennsylvania combo builds songs out of scratched fragments of roller-disco, sunshine-pop, and what sounds like intercepted interstellar broadcasts. Songs like "Jump Into My Mouth And Breathe The Stardust" are dense and fuzzy, with layers of vocoder, shrill synthesizers, and twangy guitar, but they also maintain a basic structural integrity. Even though Dandelion Gum opens with "Forever Heavy," one of the best mind-bending album-starters since My Bloody Valentine's "Only Shallow," Black Moth Super Rainbow is effective because it isn't afraid to let songs float off like brightly colored balloons." -- Noel Murray, The Onion
The rural Pennsylvania psych-damaged bubble-gum-pop enigma known as Black Moth Super Rainbow continues to tantalize and melt minds with its stellar third album Dandelion Gum and mesmerizing live shows. And, this September, The Flaming Lips has invited the swoozy quintet to support its U.S. tour. Furthermore, the band will soon announce west coast dates with Aesop Rock for October.
To add extra lysergic to the trip, a bizarre and somewhat eerie home video depicting the band members in their natural environment, traipsing through the woods at night has been posted at RollingStone.com.
