Album Review: Black Mountain - IV
"A somewhat uncertain mixture of absolute crackers combined with tracks that peter out and seem like unfinished ideas."
It's been six long years between proper albums for Canadian psych rockers Black Mountain.
But instead of using the time to deliver the out-and-out classic they've promised with previous releases, IV is a somewhat uncertain mixture of absolute crackers combined with tracks that peter out and seem like unfinished ideas. Sabbath-style guitars crank out some serious riffs in epic rockers Mothers Of The Sun and (Over & Over) The Chain, while psych trip-outs like Defector and Space To Bakersfield give Tame Impala a run for their money. But the brilliance of these songs only serves to demonstrate what a classic this album may have been.
