* GratuitousSpanish: "Jardin" (Spanish for "garden") features a few refrains in Spanish.
* GreenAesop: The band's single "Jardin" has a theme of environmental destruction, though it seems to be used as a metaphor for a dissolving relationship. The video is set in an AfterTheEnd apocalypse.

The Black Angels are a neo-PsychedelicRock band formed in Austin, Texas, in 2004. Their music is dark, haunting, and... well... psychedelic.
Although lacking much name recognition, the band is apparently beloved by music directors, because their singles feature rather disproportionately on film and TV soundtracks. Odds are, even if you've never heard of them, you've probably heard them.
To date, they have released five albums and one compilation album.
!!Tropes
* {{Retraux}}: Apparently bummed that they didn't get a chance to write a Vietnam War ProtestSong alongside their psychedelic inspirations in TheSixties, they decided to write their own anyway, "The First Vietnamese War," in 2006.
* TitledAfterTheSong: Their name is inspired by Music/TheVelvetUnderground's song "The Black Angel's Death Song." Fittingly, their fifth album is titled ''Death Song''.
