After announcing news of their forthcoming new album, The Mirror Explodes (May 19th on Tee Pee Records), Los Angeles based psychedelic rock masters The Warlocks have just offered their fans a brand new song to download courtesy of the good folks at RCRDLBL.com. Click here to download "Red Camera," the first track off the band's mind-blowing new album.
On the 8 songs of The Mirror Explodes, the band's signature amalgam of White Light/White Heat attack; space panoramas, fuzz, melancholy, and melody is present and potent, but there is a vivid focus too. Throbbing bass lines, distant rolling thunder drums, and zombie rattlesnake shake are a heartbeat of strange, ominous vitality. Guitars howl, slash and bounce like light. Bobby Hecksher's vocals sound oddly alone and unsettlingly intimate all at once. And just when you think you understand the sum of these sonic elements, they become something else entirely.
* The Mirror Explodes was produced and recorded by Rod Cervera (Weezer, The Rentals) at Clear Lake Studios, Mastered by JJ Golden at Golden Mastering. Listen to the first track, "Red Camera" off the band's new album below.
