Angels of Light - We Are Him
July 9, 2007
I’ve been waiting for some time to post about the upcoming Angels of Light album We Are Him. The lead off single, “Black River Song” has been streaming on young gods website for a few weeks and has yet to lose its intensity after repeated listens. It’s now available for download on young god records website along with a streaming version of the title track. The song “We Are Him” is pure lysergic rancor; it begins with Akron/Family’s meditative harmonization before their voices are forcibly lacerated by Gira’s scowling vocals and steady guitar. Michael Gira sounds half his age and sings with twice as much passion as many other younger songwriters out there right now. I can’t wait for this release.
