Shameless Tuesdays: Livre 21 | Your 33 Black Angels

A loud electronic beep is heard high from the sky. Is it an alien invasion, or a secret message from far beyond space? Nay, it is a third possibility: the New York-based electro-rock band Your 33 Black Angels! A blend of new-wave sounds and beautifully orchestrated dream pop, the quartet brings together melodies that speak both to every galactic race imaginable. (Yes, even the robot ones!) Their upcoming album Eternities I (in stores May 7th) asks the question "What happens after Yoshimi defeats the pink robots?", and does so with a tone both dark and hope-inducing. To celebrate their upcoming release and short US tour, Your 33 Black Angels is taking over this week's Shameless Tuesdays playlist!

Here's what vocalist/guitarist/synth/percussionist Josh Westfal has to say about this week's playlist:

Hi I'm JW from Your 33 Black Angels...I've never made a playlist before, so this is exciting. The theme of this list is futuristic, forward-thinking pop songs made by bands I've seen recently or (mostly, in this case) by friends, or tangential-almost-friends, some of whom happen to make TOP JAMS. Listen, people, if you don't know Ana Frango Electrico from Rio de Janeiro, or We Melt Chocolate from Firenze, or Dyr Faser, from some city in the USA [editor's note: they're from Boston} -- have at it!

Mauvais Oeil is playing a song from the Y33BA catalogue, which was written for them, so it's really the Mauvais Oeil catalogue, but I want those sweet French droites autoraires. And argent. But it's not a droit unless you claim it. DROITS DROITS DROITS pour tout le monde forever. And beijos to all you people on the web...
