Check out the second advance single by Acid Dad in advance of their upcoming album Take It From The Dead coming out early this summer (6/11) on Greenway Records and Reverberation Appreciation Society.
The song is called "BBQ" and it’s a muy fuego scorcher that’ll remind you of Homer Simpson lighting up the grill with an entire can of lighter fluid and sending a fireball careening into the sky, or it does me at least, with its steady driving psych riddims and heavy duty riffage and blunted out vocal spliffage (I had hoped this may be a neologism but Urban Dictionary proved otherwise of course) declaiming "I will be there / I wanna be there in my head / I can take it / I can’t take it for the dead" or something damn close to that.
And then once you’re done with your first listen you may want to check out the song’s "visualizer" on Levitation’s YouDoob page (or witness it above) which’ll give you a sensation something like staring into your dad’s old lava lamp after dropping acid with dear ol’ dad.
And wouldn’t you know it "to accompany the new record, the band spent the last year collaborating with video artist Webb Hunt producing psych and glitch art videos that form a visual counterpart to the dreamy distortions of their sound" so look for lots more LSD-infused lava lamp action coming soon.
