Black Mountain – Rollercoaster * Single of the day * release date 25/4/2011


Rollercoaster is probably best described as epic rock hewn out of riff heavy granite , ribboned with burbling keyboard sounds and tortured vocals.

Black Mountain may have presented us with a monolithic slab of a song standing amongst a field of bewildered dinosaurs but bloody hell are they feeling it and it's hard not to feel it too.

I'll take a track that could have been made forty years ago and played with heart over focus group driven, generically produced pap that sounds 'now' any day.

Probably not everyone’s cup of tea and to be honest music shouldn't be, but I could listen to this all day and that is, indeed, pretty much what I've been doing.
