Flamingods are back with news of their fifth album Levitation, announcing it alongside the psychedelic lead single "Marigold".
Nearly three years on from their last album Majesty, Bahrain psych band Flamingods are back with details of their fifth record Levitation.
The first taster of their new LP is the sprightly "Marigold", a psychedelic taster of their new album, which is influenced by psych sounds from the Middle East and South Asia in the 70s.
Since releasing their Majesty record, Flamingods have been fairly quiet, particularly in 2018, as they delivered their Kewali and Hyperborea EPs the year before.
Tracklist:
- Paradise Come
- Koray
- Marigold
- Astral Plane
- Peaches
- Moonshine on Water
- Olympia
- Club Coco
- Mantra East
- Nizwa
- Levitation
"Marigold" is out now. Levitation arrives 3 May via Moshi Moshi. Flamingods have also announced some UK dates, playing London's Village Underground on 1 May. Find out more.
