„Black Mountain is like a stoned friend with a
really good taste in music burning you a mix
CD“ NME
„They evoke a sense of drugged hopelessness:
Amber Webber’s kneeing vibrato undercuts the
brooding ‚Druganaut’, Matthew Camirand’s
resigned lyrics on ‚Faulty Times’ gilt the gloom.
Black Mountain make the end of the world an
appealing lifestyle choice.“NME
„Fantastic“ – „Black Mountain is one of those
magical records that showcases a bands
impaccable taste - for Black Sabbath, Neil
Young, the Velvets, Can and so on – but
manages to organise familiar influences
into fairly original shapes.“ Uncut
„The second great Canadian record this year after
Arcade Fire’s Funeral, Black Mountain’s self-titeled
debut is a huge beast of a thing...“ Metro
„... a spellbinding mix of heavy rock, prog,
psychedelia and The Velvet underground,
with topically disaffected lyrics.“ Mojo
„Bewitching debut from freeform psyche-
rockers... Heavy, mystical,stoned and
immaculate, Black Mountain come on like
Queens Of The Stone Age for adults.“ Kerrang
„It’s sludge-core-folk-rock-rhythm-and-blues.
It’s like a dusted opium bong hit... and it’s fucking
beautiful, man.“ Vice
