Video: Black Lips - Starting Over
The Black Lips found themselves in the centre of a bizarre getaway after a drunken crowd-baiting set in Chennai. After judging a ‘Battle of the metal bands’ competition for 6 hours, with only whisky for company, they wound up playing a frenetic session involving cursing, mooning and crowd incitement - all of which didn’t go down too well with tour managers and suits. Having to liberate their passports and take a 10 hour road trip to avoid shithole jail cells, they’re now safely holed up with King Khan in Berlin, from where the drummer Joe Bradley spoke to Vice.
Vice Records themselves are dropping the new album ‘200 Million Thousand’ on Feb 24th, and there’s a lovely taster mp3 for you right here. There’s also a chance to make your own video for the track above, ‘Starting Over’ - go here for details. Also check out the brainfuck cover art and UK tour dates after the jump.
