True Detective brought me here!

[@leebobhill4479]

Yes!

[@KamenMinkov]

+Nick Burgos Sometimes it's silly that people find new music only through movies and TV shows...

[@thevillainable]

+Nick Burgos Good for you. Doesn't matter what got you here, don't let people throw their superiority bullshit on you. The Lovetones progressed me over here.

[@cinemar]

+Kamen Minkov what exactly is silly about it?

[@MrRomagromov]

Yes bro, me too

[@gardnerdan17]

Seems like True Detective brought a lot of people to Black Mountain. I've been a huge fan for a long time. They are a great band!! It doesn't matter how you found them, just that you did. Check out more of their music. You won't be disappointed.

[@mclaincausey5564]

According to BLACK MOUNTAIN, their influences are Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin, which is exactly the three top ones I would have guessed. You can absolutely hear all of those elements', plus their own creativity's, influence on the music.

[@sarahemikula]

Damn do I love this band. Saw them in Youngstown, OH well over 10 years ago ❤️

[@civildesobidience]

Black Mountain is really one of the greatest bands coming out in recent years. They can do great simple songs as also working on more extended forms with great mastery

[@richardturner8312]

This is OG rock, if you don't get it, no big deal, you may have been raised on a different sound with a different vibe. But if you DO get it, man, isn't it just that much sweeter for the fact that musicians out there, be they few and uncelebrated, are carrying on that super8 sound, that 60's and 70's vibe, that bare feet in the grass mojo that made the era of origin so exciting to listen to.

[@ashleyawbrey1200]

Im sorry, but what is OG rock??

[@richardturner8312]

'Original Gangster' In this case meaning the music is very much in the spirit of the original sounds of the late 60's to mid 70's rock that is so evident in their influence...

[@richardturner8312]

Where I come from OG is a way of pointing out the origins or someone who was at the origin...

[@4712POMMES]

Nice surprise! Found myself back in the 60/70ies with elements of Led Zeppelin, Joan Baez, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Far East Family Band, Pink Floyd, 13th Floor Elevator, Moody Blues, Jefferson Airplane, Ten Years After, Neil Young, Mamas and Papas, Steamhammer and more. Such a band is a ray of hope, can alleviate some daily horror. Thanks lyndsaysung for posting this !!

[@addaemadison2740]

thank you true detective

[@darlenahelm7633]

They sound a lot like crosby, Stills, Nash and Young era...which I was born with that sound.

[@prdubi]

true detective......Getting old if I have to find songs with shows now. :( But very glad I did

[@LeoAgo2]

Great Song!!! Thank you,Black Mountain....and thank you, True Detective

[@EgotistsAndAutocrats]

This is a great song about drug abuse on the east side in Vancouver, where the band is from. Stephen McBean, he lead singer, is heavily involved in drug-rehabilitation and counseling the homeless. The sign in the beginning of the video is the Balmoral - a crap hole of a bar in East Van. Black Mountain is pretty much the greatest band ever. If you like them, I suggest you check out Pink Mountain Tops, and Jerk With a Bomb - They're also McBean bands (Same singer)

[@Gebraunt]

Pure perfection. No complexity.

[@jarbo26]

I like them they remind me of alternative southern rock with a hippy atmosphere surrounding them, it's just groovey

[@sistajulie]

i love this band! amber's voice rules

[@haluka31]

Tony is right one of the awesome songs when woodroughe is going somewhere and only plays for like 20 sec but what a grip man i dont know about the plt but this episode has given us some really awesome soundtracks, far distant solitude, homicide, cult murder, surging need of power and corruption, the broad landscape of USA, South west and its complexities... rage fot truth and sucide by the gun of ambition and dreams of utopia, also Frank his boiling ambition and cold kills. everything will seep in after you let it to, esp no need to compare it with rust c, am telling u what they are doing is next level because my friends uniquiness is that what we want do u want another rust c, i feel true detective is doing justice by brainstorming, though the script overall is a cheap thrill novel takeover, corrupt couty autocratic bureaucracy but the treatment, cinematography, location color tone and scheme soundtrack characters leaving their aroma later. not much dialogues. .. it suely needed editing to be wrapped up in 6 ep but still what we opted for orgasmic recreation never ending crime, the bubblegum way baby keep on chewing the twisted shit. Regards Shooter

[@Bembelrocker]

Wonderful timeless music, great band. Nothing more to say...

[@skippy2883]

i wish this band would tour more in the U.S.

[@Qbaca]

I just saw them 4 hours ago. Thanks for the great show. East Van for life!

[@Creativeo88]

What a great band. The music of iconic cool. Can see this on a new Levis ad.

[@DarkEntry82]

.. 70's come back..great song..

[@yuppieMa]

11years ago.. but damn it sounds as cool as it was before.. sadly we dont have much bands this steeze

[@Creativeo88]

Utter Brilliance. I juts keep replaying it again and again.

[@badbrad5465]

awsome music, just now found you all, all can say is wish I was there

[@jimlappin]

Great to see a lot of folk with a diverse taste in music.

[@yannisgutmann7923]

That build-up kills me every time. Till the orgasmic explosion in the end where snare drum appears for the first time.

[@anthonyslater3374]

Love this band being a while since I've heard anything from them hopefully more great music from these guys

[@LoopIntelligence]

I like the rising action. Reminds me a bit of Pink Floyd. Great song and great album. LI

[@campocal]

you right man, you right !!!!!!!

[@ejm6460]

The Good Wife, "Another Ham Sandwich" thankfully brought me here

[@Caillouteletub123]

i feel it coming man , the hippie mentality is coming back

[@vcofreo]

Temazo, gracias True Detective!!

[@user-ht4gb2fw4e]

He's a great leader to achieve a great band like this!

[@JohnEarlyChannel]

man i love canadian music.

[@matsutakneatche]

nice, i worked with steve in 1990 at goodies. He was in onion house at the time, always writing songs between makin' californians and waffles.

[@synosist]

in the end no one can say that music died at a certain time, its just a perspective your personal preference. black mountain does remind me of some guitar from joplin and cream at times, its just what it is and they sound very good.

[@lalolalocalale]

They are very good, found it by chance never heard of them til now.... very very good

[@davideterranova8510]

I discovered Black Mountain in a strange way: I made a painting that represents a black mountain. I have not studied painting techniques. Casually, having used acrylic paints for the sky and a whole pack of 75 milliliters of oil painting to make the mountain with a spatula, the end result was exceptionally good. I like to combine with each of my paintings a song, so I tried "Black Mountain", et voilà, I found _the_ "Black Mountain"... A powerful, engaging and emotionally alienating band, that also writes poetic, wonderful and evocative texts. Band like Black Mountain should be transmict by radio in loop, forever and ever and ever...😉🤨😑

[@MrRomagromov]

Shazam shown me this track from True Detective )))

[@davidf6154]

Pretty track from a great band,they compliment each other like cool jazz and accidental brilliant rock. Crank them up!

[@zzgtrplyr121]

who cares who they sound like. i love them

[@salpha530]

I was born after 1984, in fact, 1985 and I like this!!! I am always looking for music to be new and unexpected like this...and Silversun Pickups...and Hollywood Undead. Hate me, love me... I love them both!!!!

[@monkeywrench666]

Awesome.

[@earthmuzic1]

the 60s with less hope .........i like that

[@yotefwd]

thank u thank u thank u: A 70's rocker

[@pIatinger]

I like your music, guys, and thank you for it. Greetings and all the best wishes grom Germany.

[@Alari44]

Amazingly smooth...Light one up!!

[@donshamblin55]

👌😂

[@cheapy2006]

check out a film called "carts of darkness" it's a damned fine film about canadian homeless drinkin guys, made by a wheelchair dude. these guys do the closing music for it, that's where i heard them 1st (about 10 minutes ago). interesting band

[@robertonovembre7045]

A RARE KIND OF MUSIC TO FIND IN THESE YEARS, VERY BEAUTIFUL , AND SIMILAR TO SOME PIECES OF THE EARLY THINGS OF THE PINK FLOYD ! FORTUNATELY THESE "BLACK MOUNTAIN" DO EXSIST ! UN TIPO DI MUSICA MOLTO RARA DA TROVARE IN QUESTI ANNI, MOLTO BELLA, E SIMILE AD ALCUNI PEZZI DELLE PRIME COSE DEI PINK FLOYD ! FORTUNATAMENTE QUESTI BLACK MOUNTAIN ESISTONO DAVVERO !

[@giuliocitterio4386]

Roberto Novembre in verità si ispirano ai Led Zeppelin però si sono davvero bravi (li ho scoperti grazie alla loro intervista su Rolling Stones dove spiegano tutto sul loro conto)

[@metalbound7]

Amazing song, love the feeling, the concept of the song and it is a nice relax when im not listening to Metal.

[@Jethromcsheepherder]

That is partly true. But until sites like youtube came where people could share all the music, it was getting harder and harder to find good music that was pure. The corporations that own the music labels caused this void. They spoon fed us ear candy and told us to like it. It didn't work. So, I, and many others, became jaded. In the past 10 years, I have seen that the movement towards good music didn't die, it just went underground...reformed..renewed..and now its time..to ROCK!

[@Bresiu88]

This reminds me QOTSA... The same lonely, rebel and dessert style...

[@meetdoctordoom]

this song is perfect

[@pikkuapuri]

Oh Wow. This sounds exactly as the idols mixed (Floyd, Sabbath and Zeppelin).

[@charles5999]

I love this vawe!!?👏

[@jackfromiraq]

This band is freeking great!

[@bmobaggins]

oh jeez the balmoral... i really wish they'd repair that part of town.

[@grungesoundsgood]

amen brother!

[@czmma]

perfect. i love both the video and the music.

[@slamiamsam]

amazing jam!!

[@johnny2good222]

Ok..Lets just get this straight....You guys are fucking spectacular....this song is my new #1 and what kind of suffering does a person have to endure to have voice with so much soul?

[@elCondeY]

love this song

[@RichardSteinmann1]

his voice is like sweet molasses over a bowl of cheerios.

[@ashleyawbrey1200]

I can't forget your comment lol

[@Scoob505]

Richard Steinmann What are you Richard?

[@MrMojoRisin13]

GODDAMN I wanna heart this stoned! Too bad I stopped smoking weed, like, years and years ago :( This is almost sufficient impetus to start again lol.

[@bmxmyth166]

[@bmxmyth166]

[@sarahemikula]

mrmojorsn111 me too, just might do it again though 😌😉

[@Foldered]

[@evilpod]

[@ndegigli]

[@museike]

[@bomidalsasquatch]

black mountain, and in the future

[@AlmightyTod]

Damn!

[@HipHopCantSaveMe]

TRUE DETECTIVE!

[@LiteratiRecords]

Can't wait for the Black Mountain show in Denver on 4/21

[@carolynstrausser9771]

Great drumming

[@sukrukara5184]

True Detective brought me here TOO

[@bobalexander1212]

cool.

[@Caillouteletub123]

i love this , just found this song , going to buy the record soon

[@ashleyawbrey1200]

Killa killas in this town...Oh lord wont you let us be...Set us free...

[@bdbancel]

Checked this out since they're coming to Roskilde this summer. Seems fantastic, can't wait!

[@BrokenSKATE123]

this is awesome like really awesome

[@absnt11]

@sn4ke0i1 I’m totally agree with you. There is effervescence out there in the underground scene, there are so many pearls coming from the recent music. We are so lucky nowadays to have access, courtesy of internet, to this real treasury of humankind, in my opinion at least similar in range and quality with 70's golden age of music.

[@ds065210]

@sn4ke0i1 I am glad there are occasional challenges thrown down to the olders. I lived through 30 years of classic rock and grew burnt. Now I look forward and embrace. I do learn from youngers. I embrace what they tout. I sift through and call some my own. I am very selective. Could learn a few and teach a few. Rock on to all !

[@Fanaticusband]

@Ursamare Man i totally agree. The music scene in the valley where i live is starting to resemble that. If you wanna hear some more psych rock check out Fanaticus.

[@mehmetozden109]

madness

[@GinaRJumper]

great song!

[@cristiancortesz]

Muy buena rola, basica de los mountain, me gusta !

[@johnnycon]

This is really cool. The Fillmore Gears do this sort of stuff too.

[@LairyLandlubber]

A psychedelic think-burst ... I fuckin love it!

[@Enlitner]

wow! there is some psychedalic music I only really like while high but this band and especially this song and tyrants give me the same fuzzy feeling while sitting at work doing some boring shit. I felt depressed but this music makes me wise up. As long I get to listen to good music, got a dry roof and dont have to go hungry, who am I to complain about something others would be glad about. Yes the world is crap but it could be worse and there is still beauty around like this music..

[@funkempfang]

Me too!

[@Boybreakingglass]

Awesome

[@adevilindeadlyblack]

Definitely getting this on vinyl!

[@Tony01010]

good good COMPLIMENTS!

[@realmaml]

@Co0oCo0oCajo0o When the Musics Over, Wooden Ships, Hey Joe... Plenty of hopeless music in the 60s too.

[@bertbretherton]

Thanks for bothering to get in touch. To try to answer - I was born in 1941 so that means I was in my twenties throughout the 1960s and that means I don't have a clear memory of what it was like. This music does sound familiar though - and moves along very nicely. I'm sure you know what I mean.

[@SammiSeverity]

wow! i've just been set free.

[@cheeseislife]

I saw there stuff in Rolling Stones...they're really good, and I'm 14!

[@lemonostiftis]

ty for the review, JJ ... great song though makes me wanna move n shake

[@MrSotaPhonk]

wow, guess i had a completely different experience of canada when I lived there.

[@armyant14]

From my neck of the woods...great potential, Mcbean sounds a bit like Vedder, Amber adds a fantastic thread...lyrically a bit immature yet, but coming along, same with musically, sounds like a teenaged Sabbath in spots/some Zep, some Airplane. Huge potential though, bought their first two, can't wait for the next.
