Normally, Opening Bands That Suck™ appear as an aside in the post regarding the band I actually went to see. However, the Black Angles get their very own post because they suck more dick than a ‘ho in a Too Short joint.
Get baked, put a Neil Young album on one CD player, put The End on repeat on another and have a homemade Black Angels experience, without the hassle of driving to a show. I found the Black Angels unbelievably boring and derivative. In contrast, the fucktard UGA frat types standing next to me seemed to think they were great. Additionally, I learned the next day Samantha liked the Black Angels. I highly recommend suicide, if one is forced to attend a Black Angels show.
Upon further reflection, and a visit to the Black Angel’s Myspace page, some of their songs are all right. Bloodhounds on my Trail is arguably their best song and I like it, but it would not be out of place on a Black Rebel Motorcycle Club album. In contrast, Empire neatly condenses everything I hate about the Black Angels into five minutes and thirty three seconds.

The sucktitude of the video blew up my suckomometer. I missed the clip the first time around, but now you know exactly how I felt at the show. Fucking awful. The Black Keys more than made up for it though.

What a bunch of jam band wannabe putzes. I love the video on their myspace page. Wow, thanks for bragging that you’re making the song up… what creative geniuses! How much Robitussin did they drink to get so frigging monotonous?
