Black Moth Super Rainbow: McCarren Pool July 27th 2008


It is starting to feel like summer finally here in Brooklyn and soon the pool parties will start. I am really looking for to Black Moth Super Rainbow. They are highly addictive to my ears especially when under the effects of special tea. If you haven't checked them out go to their site:

They also recently released the single 'Zodiac Girls' which can be heard on their myspace:

Here's a pic and thier bio, More Pool party info below.....


Bio:

"Black Moth Super Rainbow come from the woods of western Pennsylvania. An actual, five-member band without the expected laptops and sequencers, BMSR is a psych-pop group in early-’70s electronic clothing. Sometimes the songs feel like pagan rituals in a sugarcoated fairyland, while at other times they’re like sad thoughts on the happiest days. All are lovingly played by real people with real hands.

Members prefer to go by aliases and stay away from normal press photos, in an attempt to keep the focus on their music. Led by Tobacco (Vox), who does most of the writing and production, the band also consists of Power Pill Fist (bass and atari), Father Hummingbird (rhodes and monosynth), The Seven Fields Of Aphelion (monosynth) and Iffernaut (drums). By developing their ideas in near-seclusion and without any local influence in Pittsburgh, they come across as feral and unique. Imagine being able to wipe the slate clean and hearing a pop song without ever hearing a pop song before and replacing the types of melodies you’re accustomed to hearing with something different. It’s kind of like that.

Most people associate sounds like a vocoded vocal with techno and novelty and analog synths with electro, but BMSR is coming from a different place and are trying to recontextualize these sounds. They’re categorized in the electronic genre, but their heads are somewhere else."
