Let's take a two hour break from this weary world and listen to some tunes!
Black Mountain plays in Ottawa on Friday July 22nd at Ritual (137 Besserer St.)

Here Be Monsters Vol. 2 was available on the last Motorpsycho tour as a "tour exclusive", although when the rest of us found out and started complaining they also made it available by mail order. Here is the whole thing. |

On Friday July 22nd, Black Mountain will be in town! I bought a ticket and now I can't go, so I hope to at least spread the word about it. Here are my favorite tracks from their newest album, IV... but first, some music from their keyboardist Jeremy Schmidt's side-project, Sinoia Caves... |
Naro Way Sinoia Caves - The Enchanter Persuaded - Brah |
Through the Valley Sinoia Caves - The Enchanter Persuaded - Brah |
The Wicker Chair Sinoia Caves - The Enchanter Persuaded - Brah |
(Over and Over) The Chain Black Mountain - IV - Jagjaguwar |
Crucify Me Black Mountain - IV - Jagjaguwar |
Space to Bakersfield Black Mountain - IV - Jagjaguwar |
A few shows ago I played the album Liquid by Dutch space rock group 35007. Their drummer from 2002-2005, Sander Evers, is now in a group called Monomyth that mines similar terrain. (Trivia note: 35007's ORIGINAL drummer, Jacco van Rooy, played with Motorpsycho on their album Black Hole / Blank Canvas ... so everything is connected!). |
Vanderwaalskrachten Monomyth - Monomyth - Suburban Records |
Collision Monomyth - Further - Suburban Records |
To close the show we will continue the uplifting vibe with a Canadian Classic. |
East Hastings Godspeed You Black Emperor - f#a#∞ - Kranky |
Great music.
