Salt Lake City Weekly’s live music picks for November 12 through November 18.

The term “psychedelic” first came into use in the mid-1950s; music’s psychedelic era commenced about a decade later, propelled by wider availability of LSD and other psychoactive drugs. The leading lights of the psychedelic era were bands like the 13th Floor Elevators, Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead, while even darker undertones were explored by the Velvet Underground and other less-commercially oriented artists. By the mid-1970s, however, psychedelic rock had largely faded from the public’s consciousness as other forms—disco, punk etc.—took over. But nobody told The Black Angels. Not exactly a throwback to the original psychedelic era, the Austin, Tex. band makes modern music that is greatly informed and inspired by the music of old. But in the hands of this boundary-pushing band, psych is once again enjoying an extended and very much above-ground heyday. The group debuted in 2004 with a fresh rethink of ’60s psychedelia, focusing on drone, experimentation and long-form musical excursions. By the time of 2017’s Death Song (their fifth studio album), The Black Angels had moved toward concise, shorter forms while keeping the swirling psychedelic values at the fore. The Black Angels come to Metro Music Hall for a 21+ show on Friday, Nov. 13 at 7 p.m. Tickets are currently sold out, but resale may be available at the Fan Marketplace on 24tix.com. (Bill Kopp)
