I’m trying to figure out if I like these ambient sound recordings or not…but I keep listening

Went to Black Angels gig on Sunday. I was looking forward to it as I had been listening to them for a bit – they sound like something out of 1965 – old school rock’n'roll but with a Doors/Velvet Underground supervise feel to them. Unfortunately, they didn’t come off great live – possibly the singer was not altogether there. Overall it was so-so. The first support band however really rocked – a local DC band called Tone. I’d like to see them again – they got that Mogwai vibe going on, purely instrumental and with two drummers.
