Peacock Pools - Pink Mountaintops - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

The ‘alternative country meets indie space garage pop meets psychedelic rock’ of Vancouver's Pink Mountaintops is the brainchild of Stephen McBean, who is also the singer/songwriter/guitarist for Black Mountain, which was formerly known as Jerk With A Bomb. McBean's solo project, starting in the late ‘90s, was also known by another name: One Easy Skag. By 2003 both bands were rechristened with their mountainous names, and in the summer of 2004 the Pink Mountaintops' self-titled debut album arrived. While the album became one of 2005's most prominent indie rock releases, McBean brought Pink Mountaintops back the following year with “Axis Of Evol”. The well-received “Outside Love” arrived in 2009, followed by a pair of Black Mountain releases (“In The Future” and “Wilderness Heart”). The group's “Get Back”, dropped in 2014, is now finally followed up with “Peacock Pools”. The line-up of Pink Mountaintops is ever changing, only Stephen McBean is predominantly on the helm of most things, but in the past the band included members of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Dead Meadow and Brian Jonestown Massacre. Now we see musicians from bands as Red Kross, Melvins, Destroyer, Death Valley Girls and Sinoia Caves playing along Stephen on “Peacock Pools”. Again, Mr. McBean is making quite an eclectic, personal and twisted happening of it; it sounds ‘crazy, nerdy, funky & funny and also sometimes pretty noisy & rocky’. “Peacock Pools” is a freewheeling and bombastic emotional rollercoaster, always moving, uplifting and outgoing!
