Few bands are more difficult to write about than Black Moth Super Rainbow. The inherent writerly impulse is to lapse into cliche, whilst invoking the words, “mellotron,” “psychedelic,” “Flaming Lips,” and “bubble-gum.” I’ve done it on multiple occasions, and like bubble gum itself, there’s something stupid about explaining why you like it–you just do.
Pitchfork reviewed “Twin of Myself” today. Thus, I’m assuming it’s the first single from Black Moth’s wonderful Eating Us, and a C&D letter from Graveface isn’t imminent. I hope not, because this is tailor-made for the sun-scorched West Coast spring. Sorry East Coasters, you’ll un-thaw soon enough–this is the trade-off for our lack of mass transit.
