PASSOVER by THE BLACK ANGELS

The Black Angels debut album, speaks of real-life horrors, death, and destruction with doses of love, sex, and healing. Don�t lose track, these are caring times as well.

In early 2006, the band�s self-titled debut EP was dubbed highly recommended in Spin Magazine while receiving heavy radio airplay on such influential stations as KEXP and BBC Radio 1 by Zane Lowe.Growing in spades since their EP, Passover showcases a band on the make. Spiraling upwards to the skies with the enemy straight on their trail, �The Sniper At The Gates Of Heaven� sees The Black Angels reaching high and stretching out with trance-inducing guitar lines from Christian Bland, Nate Ryan�s filthy medical dumpster bass, and the grizzly preacher vox of lead shaman Alex Maas. �Black Grease� is a bluesy monster full of swagger propelled by the primitive beat of drummer Stephanie Bailey and the mourning drone of organist Jennifer Raines. 10-songs deep, Passover has come again. Reflecting and questioning the intergenerational psychosis of American social life that surrounds us, The Black Angels put forth their answers in song. It�s a �Call To Arms� for those ready to join the good fight, a rock �n� roll salvation during the times we need it the most. As Maas bellows on �Young Man Dead,� �Fire for the hills, pick up speed, and let�s go��
