Of all the bands to hop aboard the surf culture resurrection, Vancouver space rock band Black Mountain seemed least likely. Yet this April, they'll release the soundtrack to the upcoming post-apocalyptic surf film Year Zero . According to a press release, the film takes place in a "damaged but stunningly beautiful place, a world where the reset button has been hit, where we hold onto the vestiges of the things we love." More than just Mad Max meets Blue Crush , the project is "ultimately as much a 'surf movie' as it is a [...]
Stereogum reports that Vancouver rockers Black Mountain have announced the release of their soundtrack for the upcoming surfing apocalypse ("surfpocalypse"?) movie, Year Zero . You might be wondering how Stephen McBean has managed to balance this, while working on his new project Grim Tower , and supposedly we'll be getting a new album from The Pink Mountaintops soon. Well, not all of the songs on the Year Zero soundtrack are new ones I'm afraid, so this can't officially go down as a new album. But, there are a decent number of [...]

The great Vancouver riff-rock band Black Mountain are obviously the first people you'd ask to soundtrack your apocalyptic surfing movie, and the people behind the forthcoming film Year Zero had the exact same idea. In April, the band will release their soundtrack to the film, and it features Black Mountain songs both old and new. One of the new ones is an eight-minute charging-rhino jam called "Mary Lou," and you can download it below. We've also got that soundtrack album's tracklist and the movie's trailer. Read More...
Black Mountain just posted a fan made video for "the first Black Mountain song ever" over on their Facebook page. We thought it was pretty cool, so we are sharing it with you. So if you got nine minutes to spare, and wanna see something kick ass, press play on the thingy below. This is Buffalo Swan.
BAM! Bet you were expecting a Best of 2011 list, yeah? Well I don't got time for that (YET)! No...this is where I acknowledge all the great stuff I missed in 2010. 'Cause it doesn't get any more rock n roll than to talk about shit that's over a year old. Write that down in your How to Be Rock N Roll notebooks. Anyway, the last time I wrote this list , I spent quite a while talking about how there isn't enough time in one year to listen to all the potentially great releases and put [...]
People coming into this post thinking 'what the hell? I thought he was making a new Black Mountain album!?' let me immediately allay your fears: Stephen McBean is coming to the completion of a new Black Mountain album. And a new Pink Mountaintops album. And this new album from his new project Grim Tower is now far off. In fact, the real headline here should be "Stephen McBean is leading a triple life." Grim Tower is a two-man project with Imaad Wasif, who has in the past toured with Yeah Yeah Yeahs. McBean and Wasif apparently spent a [...]

For those of you who have visited this particular blog in the past, it is no secret that I will shortly be packing up the family and moving out west. I'm opening a new pizza place on Commercial Drive that I hope each and every one of you will have a chance to frequent consistently in the near future. Aside from the business side of the move, I am most excited about living in a city with a reliable music scene. I have spent a lot of time pondering all of the shows I will be [...]
Now that Black Mountain seems to have wound down for the time being, Amber Webber and Joshua Wells are back with more Lightning Dust material. Here's the moody "Never Again," which is carried by expansive synths, echoing electro beats and Webber's quivering vocals. This comes from the duo's new split 73 with Hard Drugs , which is coming out October 4 through the Storyboard Label . Go to Exclaim! for more.
I done been a fan of Vancouver, Canada's Black Mountain for quite some time now. The band's shuffle-y stoner rock stylings fuse the best elements of ethereal 70s classic prog rock with melodic Zeppelin fare and heavy Sabbath-esque riffage, and the blend makes for one hell of an exploratory journey of psychedelic balls-deep rawk. Take [...]
Yukon Blonde wil release a new EP entitled Fire/Water this coming October 11th thought Dine Alone Records.
