“The idea was to create a mini ‘Twilight Zone’ episode, where a man’s life flashes before his very eyes before he enters eternity,” guitarist Christian Bland has said of the new Black Angels video. “Where he ends up, no one knows.”
Half Believing leads off the band’s 2017 LP Death Song – a Live4ever album of the year:
“There’s also a need to consider the closer, Life Song… Tonally, it takes Young Men Dead’s epic, Ennio Morricone-esque style to a new extreme. It’s immense, beautiful and complete with a solo Gilmour would be proud of. Scale is what defines Death Song. The Black Angels have taken what they know, and instead of retreading or refining it, they’ve instead decided to launch it into space.”
