Today's Quick Mention: I'm already
seeing Pavement in Berkeley on June 25, but now that
Gary Young (the original drummer) will be playing
the show in Stockton the night before, I'm in
interested in that one as well. What do you
guys think? Should I do Pavement shows back to
back?
I've been very eager for something new from Black
Mountain since the band announced their third full
length earlier in the year, and now my dream has
come true. Victory! Check out the first
single below. Wilderness Heart isn't
due for release by Jagjaguwar until the super far
away date of September 14, so get ready to exude the
patience I don't have. Enjoy.

Mountain - Old Fangs:
The band's last album might actually be my favorite
psych-rock album ever, so I have to admit I came into this
hoping for a continuation of those songs. And?
Well, this definitely doesn't sound like it belongs on In
The Future, but it does feel like a natural progression
for them, and I'm pretty impressed with how easy they've
made that process look. This is a killer track.
