Black Mountain

Black Mountain will release their new album, IV, via Jagjaguwar on April 1. The first single is an eight-minute monster titled “Mothers of the Sun” whose core riff the band has had in their back pocket for some time. Says guitarist Stephen McBean, “Sometimes a riff hangs out in the basement for 10 years before it’s finally ready to hit the streets.” The video, directed by Ben Jacques and Justin Gradin, aims as wide as the song with a plethora of psychedelic and mystical imagery. Watch below.

Black Mountain will be on tour this spring, including a stop at Levitation in Austin. No East Coast shows announced at this time, unfortunately. All dates are listed below.
