On May 21, 2011, Austin-based band The Black Angels visited Oklahoma City for a concert at ACM@UCO Performance Lab.

Before its set, I met with the band inside the Spy Van.

They performed a playful version of this Velvet Underground song, which is only a small taste of its upcoming episode.

Random Fact: The band lifted it’s name from the Velvet Underground track “The Black Angel’s Death Song.” That song and “Mirror” are from the album “The Velvet Underground & Nico.”

Here’s this fancy cover song on Vimeo if that’s your thing.
