Black Moth Super Rainbow Reactivate, Announce Tour, Release Expanded Dandelion Gum

BLACK MOTH SUPER RAINBOW REACTIVATE, ANNOUNCE TOUR, RELEASE EXPANDED DANDELION GUM

“We’re back.”

Those two words appeared on the recently revived Black Moth Super Rainbow website, signaling the return of one of today’s most bizarre and distinguishable musical collectives. Having recently played Austin Psych Fest, the group has reactivated after two years off with a brand new line-up consisting of Tobacco (fresh off vigorous touring behind the release of his solo endeavor, Maniac Meat), Seven Fields of Aphelion, Ryan Graveface (aka Dreamend), and Iffernaut.

With most of BMSR’s catalog destroyed in a flood of their distributor’s warehouse last summer, Graveface Records has decided to re-release an expanded edition of Dandelion Gum (dubbed the Dandelion Gum Extra Flavor Deluxe Reissue). It can be purchased here. A new album is in the works, as well, tentatively titled Psychic Love Damage.
