Black Mountain (lyrics, metal, psychedelic, rock, cd)

I seriously cannot make up my mind whether I like this band or not. They are bringing nothing new musically to the table, yet it is quite well produced and reminds me of my youth. Decidedly retro 70's rock riffs mixed with the sort of acoustical work connected at that time. Tyrants is a good track. Most of the new album is on here:

I just got "In the Future" and it has a very 70's-ish black metal sound to it, and also has a very independent feel to it as well.

This record was playing in a music store while I was there buying something completely different. It sounded prety cool, and when I went to pick it up, I grabbed an album and 3 people after me grabbed an album. I quite enjoy listening to it and it has become my most played CD in my car right now. It's got a lot of loud/quiet/loud moments and I think there is only one track that I don't really like all that much and that's 'Bright Lights'
