The Black Watch return with their 18th full-length album, Brilliant Failures, released in 2020 on A Turntable Friend Records. The Los Angeles-based indie outfit has long cultivated a devoted cult following, drawing comparisons to power pop legends Big Star for their ability to craft shimmering, timeless pop songs with a rock edge. Album after album, they have quietly built one of the most consistent and underappreciated catalogs in independent music.
Brilliant Failures is widely considered among the best work in the band's extensive discography, praised for its crisp guitar work, seamless transitions, and a timeless allure that sets it apart from their peers. Spanning 13 tracks, the album showcases the group at peak form โ delivering the kind of carefully crafted songwriting that rewards repeated listens and cements their reputation as a modern cult legend. This swirly vinyl pressing comes with a large-format lyric sheet insert, making it a truly satisfying package for fans and newcomers alike.
