Royal Baths - a little darkness from San Francisco

Royal Baths - "After Death" live from moogie on Vimeo.




This is a San Francisco band formerly known as the Baths. They are currently with Woodsist Records, and they came out with their debut album "Litanies" in September of 2010. Some of the band's influences are groups like The Velvet Underground and Spacemen 3. The band focuses on the darkness and dismay in their song writings with titles; Sinister Sunrise, Bad Heart, and After Death. Their albums has been welcomed with mixed reviews; some rave about them, while others find nothing special. I personally feel in love with the with the dark lyrics and garage rock.
