Black Lips are some wild dudes. Their music has reflected that in the past but it seems for their new album “200 Million Thousand” is a bit more melodic. Although the melodies are flowing, the band is still sticking true to their lo-fi garage sound that makes them who they are. The song is full of cool space effects, effective piano parts, and usual great guitar work. They really have a lot going on in this song and it all pieces together effectivly. This is very different for the band but I am digging it. Looking forward to hearing the rest of the album!
