National Album Day 2025

THIS IS A PRE ORDER: RELEASE DATE: 18th October 2025

Their debut self-titled record, like a space probe built of erector set parts and transmitting secret and arcane messages to Earth by string, charts territories unknown yet remains grounded by the roots of classic rock and roll. It’s easy to discern these roots: Black Sabbath, Animals-era Pink Floyd, Blue Cheer, Led Zeppelin, and Can. Principal songwriter Stephen McBean’s vocals are a smoother, bluesier amalgam of the voices of Neil Young, Mick Jagger, and perhaps James Brown loaded on cough syrup. And when Amber Webber’s voice joins Stephen’s, the combination brings to mind the potency and chemistry of Richard and Linda Thompson singing together on Shoot Out the Lights, or of Meat Loaf and Ellen Foley howling together on Bat Out of Hell.
Musical comparisons aside, the Black Mountain full-length is one part protest song, one part pop-cultural commentary, and one part sick-groove-rock casserole peppered with mesmerizing ballads and intoxicating ditties.
