High on a Mountain Top


Everyone remembers 2005 when Wolf Parade made the trek down south from Canada, bringing with them Apologies to the Queen Mary. The album was showered with acclaim, and even prompted Pitchfork to give it a 9.2/10. Since then, Wolf Parade has released the disappointing At Mount Zoomer (2008). With Wolf Parade’s sophomore album not impressing the music world, many question if Canada has officially dried up of good bands. Luckily, for all you Canadian band loving freaks, Canada is still producing quality music. The band that is single handedly putting Canada back on the map comes from Vancouver, and is called Black Mountain. Although labeled as psychedelic rock, Black Mountain’s sound is very unique. Their latest album, In The Future, helps to solidify their status as ‘ground breaking.’ The album has an array of sounds that showcases the band’s musical range. At times their music is metal sounding with their deep drums, and heavy guitar riffs. At other times, lead singer Stephen McBean croons into the microphone. Black Mountain is one of those bands that are hard to describe to someone who has not listened to them. My suggestion is listen to them, let your ears bleed, and then we can talk about Black Mountain.
