Archive material and source history

Black Mountain formed in Vancouver in 2004 around Stephen McBean, Amber Webber, and Joshua Wells. They signed with the independent label Jagjaguwar, which released their self-titled debut album in 2005. Their 2010 album 'In the Future' drew particular attention for its experimental, atmospheric qualities.

Their songs like 'Buried By the Blues' and 'Cemetery Breeding' show the band's tendency toward dark, introspective lyrics set against a blend of psychedelic rock, folk, and electronic textures. The core trio of McBean, Webber, and Wells has remained steady, though they've occasionally worked with other musicians from related projects like Pink Mountaintops.

Beyond 'In the Future,' they've put out albums including 'Wilderness Heart' in 2013, 'Destroyer' in 2016, and 'IV' in 2019. Tracks such as 'Stay Free' and 'Mystery' continue in that vein of moody, expansive rock that doesn't quite fit any single genre.
