Psychedelic rock

The Black Angels is a Psychedelic rock act. Their sound grew out of Ron Gallo, Black Market Karma, The 13th Floor Elevators, The Velvet Underground and Spiritualized. Those roots explain a lot about how The Black Angels arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Black Mountain, Elephant Stone, Goat and The Dolly Rocker Movement, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Horrors, The Black Keys, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Warlocks and Roky Erickson, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 31 connections around The Black Angels, reaching back through Ron Gallo and forward to The Horrors.
