Black Mountains joined by The Night Terrors on Australian tour
28 January 2011
After sharing the stage multiple times together in Europe last year, Canadian psych-rock five piece Black Mountain have invited Melbourne trio The Night Terrors to join them for all dates of their February Australian tour.
Last seen on our shores two years ago off the back of their critically acclaimed and immaculate sophomore record In The Future, Black Mountain are back with new album in tow. Recorded in both Seattle and LA, Wilderness Heart is packed with succinct rock songs that pulse and pound with startling precision. It’s arguably the band’s tightest, most concentrated venture, but there’s still plenty of raw energy at work.
As anyone who saw them on their last trip to Australia can attest, the combination of the band’s strong songwriting chops, exquisitely layered male / female harmonies, 70s psychedelia and stoner grooves with the unrefined excitement they produce in the live environment is, quite simply, spellbinding.
