Description
TUE, 4 NOV
BLACK LIPS
Atlanta’s beloved sons the Black Lips entered last year through a screaming cloud of sweat, smoke, blood, and beer mist, in front of a dangerously packed hall in New Orleans’ French Quarter. If a band’s bipolarity runs on a touring vs. recording-an-album spectrum, then the previous year was the mother of all manic spells. After a spring and summer running the usual festival circuit in North America and Europe, the Lips embarked on a two-month fall tour of the Middle East. Then the band returned home from the New Year’s maelstrom and began settling into album mode. Songs had piled up in the two years since 2011′s Arabia Mountain. Recording for Underneath the Rainbow was split between New York and Nashville. And it sounds as a blend of southern rock with throwback C&W and blues. Which is a weird description for a record containing the first Black Lips’ song with a prominent synth (“Funny”).
