BLACK REBEL MOTORCYLE CLUB – Live At Levitaton – LP – Gold Nugget Vinyl

LP – Limited Edition Gold Nugget Vinyl.

The Reverberation Appreciation Society are proud to welcome Black Rebel Motorcycle Club with the Seventh vinyl release in the Live at Levitation series. The release showcases the bands appearance at the festival with their 2013 performance.The multi-track recordings were assembled and mixed in the studio of BRMC co-founder Peter Hayes, bringing these tracks back into the light.

In the early 2000s, San Francisco’s Black Rebel Motorcycle Club were part of a vanguard of acts spearheading a garage rock revival – each a beacon of the staying power of gritty guitar music: The White Stripes and Dirtbombs in Detroit, The Kills in London, The Strokes and Interpol in New York, The Raveonettes in Copenhagen – the list goes on. Each made their mark, and BRMCs take on rock and roll in the 20th century was particularly alluring – dark and atmospheric, their debut LP took them immediately out of the underground and onto stages worldwide, bringing their rock and roll manifesto to a new generation of music fans and artists.

LEVITATION and the LIVE AT LEVITATION Vinyl Series:
The first Austin Psych Fest was held in March 2008, and expanded to a 3 day event the following year. The event quickly developed into an international destination for psychedelic rock fans, with line-ups spanning the fringes of indie rock, from up-and-comers to vintage legends, and capped off with headline performances from co-founders The Black Angels, along with Tame Impala, The Flaming Lips, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Thee Oh Sees (in various forms) and many more. Levitation helped spark a movement, inspiring the creation of similar events across the globe and a burgeoning psych scene that would soon ignite. The series captures key moments in psychedelic rock history, and live music in Austin, Texas, pressed on beautiful limited edition colorful vinyl pressings – each an eye popping visual representation of the music contained within.

The artists and sets showcased on Live at Levitation have been chosen from over a decade of recordings at the world-renowned event, and document key artists in the scene performing for a crowd of their peers and fans who gather at Levitation annually from all over the world.
