Pittsburgh's Black Moth Super Rainbow returned from their SXSW stint to find all sorts of big-time big-ups, including a glowing mention in the New York Times. So we're now more eager than ever to catch a BMSR live show, especially since the group's trippy, who-put-the-acid-in-my-mescaline album Dandelion Gum—due out in May—has been fuzzing up our workspace for the past few weeks. "Sun Lips," below, provides a pretty good idea of the band's sound, which would work well either a 1973 nature documentary or midnight-movie serial-killer thriller:

Theoretically I really should be liking all this wave of endless bong-n-zone-n-stoned stuff but at a certain point the band names are the only real surprises (and this one just feels like a parody of Brightblack Morning Light).
Or vice versa, as these guys predate BBML by a year or two.
These guys did a collaboration album with the The Octopus Project that's worth checking out.
The trappings are nice, but they sort of forgot to write a song.
Lovely, they sound like Air used to do in the olden times. You know, when they weren't a parody of themselves yet.
@brasstax: Indeed? Condemn 'em both, I say!
This is too overtly stoner for me to enjoy while high. Like getting it on to "Let's Get it On."
Dude, Idolator, get with the program. You're just now featuring these guys?
