Austin\u2019s psych-rock legends\u00a0The Black Angels\u00a0have just released their brand new album\u00a0\u2018Wilderness of Mirrors\u2019\u00a0via\u00a0Partisan Records, with acclaim spanning\u00a0NPR All Songs Considered<\/a>,\u00a0SPIN<\/a>,\u00a0BrooklynVegan<\/a>,\u00a0Guitar World<\/a>Premier Guitar<\/a>,\u00a0Austin Chronicle<\/a>,\u00a0FLOOD<\/a>,\u00a0Under The Radar<\/a>, and more. Now, they have shared the electrifying final single from the collection,\u00a0Empires Falling<\/em>, alongside an official music video.

About the track the band says,\u00a0\u201c\u2018Empires Falling\u2019 is a critical and reflective plea that examines humanity’s repetitive art of violent mass destruction. As we say in the chorus,\u00a0<\/em>“it’s history on repeat.”\u00a0We are living in a\u00a0<\/em>Wilderness Of Mirrors, where it\u2019s hard to tell what\u2019s right from wrong, up from down, or the truth from lies as we navigate through these times\u00a0where the fate of humanity is being refracted and reflected from one state of panic to another. The world is a\u00a0<\/em>“bleeding animal” and we are left exhausted, polarized, and\u00a0<\/em>“pleading from street to bloody street.”\u00a0History has proven, time and time again, that without a drastic metamorphosis from our leaders, politics, and ultimately ourselves…\u00a0<\/em>“you can be the one who saves yourself, or you can watch it all go to hell.”\u00a0Watch the Empires Falling<\/em> video via YouTube below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
