New Music: Pure X release another single, Heaven, from upcoming LP Angel.

Less than a year after the release of sophomore album Crawling Up The Stairs, Austin’s Pure X are back with new material. “Heaven”, which can be streamed below, is the second single taken from the band’s forthcoming LP, Angel. (You can check out the equally luminescent first single, "Starlight", HERE.)

These new tracks show the band returning to the psych-pop stoner haze reminiscent of debut LP Pleasure, and stylistically they provide slightly easier listening than songs from the brilliant & visceral mindfuck of Crawling Up The Stairs. The new singles indicate that Angel will be much more than a rehash of sounds past, however; they show Pure X continuing to expand and evolve their unique, kaleidoscopic sound to increasingly mind-altering heights. Angel will be released April 1st (North America) and May 5th (UK/Europe) via the band’s new label, Fat Possum.
