Cobra Juicy is the sixth studio album by Pennsylvania based band Black Moth Super Rainbow. Initially scheduled to be released on October 9, it was eventually pushed back to October 23, 2012.
Background
After the release of their album Eating Us in 2009, the band had begun work on their fifth album. It was scheduled to be released in 2011 under the name Psychic Love Damage, although it was later revealed by BMSR-member Tobacco that he had scrapped the album for finding it not worth the fans spending money on.{{citation needed|date=February 2013}}
Towards the end of March 2012, a song titled "Like a Sundae" was released.YouTube - Like a Sundae https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GBoQZUwfnc On April 5, along with an announcement about the album release, a song called "Spraypaint" was revealed.YouTube - Spraypaint https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cbvmT2Fegw
