Review:
I
remember reviewing this album back in 2011 when it was originally
released. It struck me back then what a fantastic record this really
is and how Holy Mount were a band to look out for. Fast forward 4
years and the record is being re-released as a Deluxe Edition on
Vinyl.
If
you're new to the world of Holy Mount, here's your chance to find
what all the excitement is about. Holy Mount play
Heavy/Psych/Drone/Stoner Rock with hints of Doom running throughout
their sound. It's very very loud once the guys get into a continuous
rhythm and the album can be very euphoric at times especially on the
opening few tracks.
Fans
of Earthless will get a kick out of this band and album you can hear
certain influences from that legendary band within Holy Mount's
music. It's hard to pick a favourite song on this album as they're
all equally good as each other. The thing that impresses the most is
how the band constantly shift musical genres without you noticing as
you will by put in a hypnotic trance. It's addictive stuff with
shades of 70s Psych Rock coming into play at times.
What's
so deluxe about this edition. Well the band have included two songs
from the “Breeze Blows West” 7” they released a while back.
Even though the band have released two further albums (Alpic and VOL)
since this albums original release, it's this album that I consider
my fave from Holy Mount. As it showed me what awesome musicians the
guys actually are. I've heard rumblings of a new album being released
next year or so. Let's hope so as I feel Holy Mount have only began
their musical journey. Until then, enjoy this trippy and psyched out
masterpiece.
