Love Letters and Hate Mail by Black Valentine (Self Released)
Black Valentine has unleashed Love Letters and Hate Mail upon the world at large. This one is their 7th studio album, and it’s a rocking recording well worth seeking out. When Sunset Strip rock collide with the psychedelic meanderings of Pink Floyd, the glorious multicolored crash would be the gems founded within the realm of Love Letters and Hate Mail. The opening serenade commences with the hypnotic Sweet Surrender and then rock you in a vast and blissful way with the amazing refrains of the reflective Find My Way. Happily Ever After is another brilliant and liberating highlight found within. The Black Valentine trio really know how to rock world, featuring Frankie Yanno on vocal and guitar, Duke Carpenter on bass, and Jesse Wolff on drums. Yanno is also in The Guitar & Whiskey Club, and you could find GWC members Mark Prudeaux and David Carbajal making appearances throughout the album. Love Letters and Hate Mail is music from the heart that will receive reactions of pure ardor from all types of music fans!
