Boy, Don't It Drone.

Herein I introduce you to a couple of bands that drone like nobody's business. The first drones like the Velvet Underground, the latter like My Bloody Valentine. If My Bloody Valentine droned. They kind of fuzzed. Maybe they did both.

First up, we have The Black Angels, from these states united. Austin, Texas, specifically. They are very, very good if you like this sort of psychedelic material, and I sure do.

Tracks #78, 79, & 80: "You On the Run," "Vikings," and "You in Color," all off 2008's Directions to See a Ghost.

Next up, we have a band from Leeds, Englandland, United Kingdom of Happablap and Northern Blahdiblah, that I just discovered, called The Manhattan Love Suicides. They drone and/or fuzz.

The first two tracks, #81 & #82 over yonder, are both originals off their self-titled debut, which I'm pretty sure came out this year. "Things You've Never Done," followed by "Skulls." How very nice.

Lastly, #83, they've done a nice if run-of-the-mill cover of a great Beat Happening song, called "Indian Summer." So here it is. This is also off their self-titled debut. "Indian Summer" is totally like my second favorite Beat Happening Song. My first favorite is probably "Bewitched," because it's stone cold. Yeah, Beat Happening were awesome.

Please to enjoy.
