Lips Like Sugar

Black LipsBlack Lips
Genre: Garage punk, Psychedelic rock, Flower punk
From: Atlanta, Georgia, USA


With both feet planted firmly in the 60s and a sound that recalls The Seeds, The Sonics, The 13th Floor Elevators and The Electric Prunes Atlanta's rowdy, raunchy garage-rock revivalists and self proclaimed flower punkers the Black Lips could easily be the son and heir of Lenny Kaye's Nuggets.

Fresh off the release of their their fifth studio album, '200 Million Thousand' the band are taking their fidgety, ramshackle garage psych to Austin, Texas for a slate of SXSW appearances.

With a reputation for outrageous live appearances that have included homo erotic displays of nudity and band members kissing, power wheel races, fireworks, a chicken!!, and setting guitars on fire if you're heading to SXSW they are the must see band of the festival.
