ALBUM PREMIERE: FRANKIE AND THE WITCH FINGERS ‘BRAIN TELEPHONE’

L.A.’s Frankie and the Witch Fingers are about to release their new Brain Telephone album this Friday on Permanent, and it’s ten freaked out first-album Elevators/Lollipop Shoppe/maybe-the-nuttier-Seeds? rock ‘n’ roll songs, bristling with sci-fi effects and transdimensional psychedelic imagery. They’ll be celebrating releasing this record at the Echo this Friday with Pow!, the Mad Walls and DJs Sammie Pearson and Peri Levin, and they’re raffling off handscreened copies if you buy your tix at the Highland Park Permanent location, too. (If you saw the handscreened Mind Meld LPs, you’ll be into this.) They’ve got a few more local shows before they leave on tour in October—full schedule below!
