Black MountainIt'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.
