Black Rainbows

Doomy psych heroes Black Rainbows return with their eighth album, Superskull, out June 9 via Heavy Psych Sounds. Get a taste of it with the single “Apocalypse March.”

Black Rainbows worship volume and debut the first song from new album Cosmic Ritual Supertrip.

Get lost in space with Italian purveyors of all things psychedelic Heavy Psych Sounds.

In this month’s issue, we talked to Black Rainbows’ guitarist/vocalist Gabriele Fiori about the Italian band’s new album, Hawkdope—a gloriously psychedelic romp that pays homage to legends of the riff like Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Hawkwind and Monster Magnet. With that in mind, we asked our man to single out the best song from each of the aforementioned bands…no easy task considering their extensive, decades-spanning catalogs.
