The Pink Mountaintops

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

The "trippy country meets stoner 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 was also known by another name, One Easy Skag. He began playing with Jerk with a Bomb in the late '90s, and the band issued three albums and a 7" under that name. By late 2003, both Jerk with a Bomb and One Easy Skag were rechristened with their mountainous names, and in the summer of 2004, {$the Pink Mou...[more]

 

 

Pink Mountaintops is Stephen Mcbean, who's been in numerous groups over the last two decades - a straight out punk outfit, a crusty punk/metal band, and most recently, a psych-tinged maximal rock group whose self-titled debut, Black Mountain, captured a great amount of critical acclaim (and meteorically became Jagjaguwar's best-selling title). With Axis Of Evol, Mcbean has once again created something much greater than the sum of his influences. The record almost immediately ramps up into a th   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. The rock 'n' roll road can be a long and lonely one. And it leaves much time for the mind to wander, to fixate, and to obsess over the human body and all its wondrously dirty parts. Enter The Pink Mountaintops. Their debut record begins with "She caught my eye and I was on fire," and it ends with a repetitive begging plea, "Don't walk away!" from a reworking of Joy Division's "Atmosphere." In between these bookend statements, mountains are fucked, an ode to rock 'n' roll groupies is sung, and    [ read more ]

The first song is yet another in a long line of great fuzzed-out Velvet-styled gems, sped up ever so slightly to be in synch with the minds of akathisiacs everywhere. The flip is the more affecting and spiritual of the two, perhaps Stephen McBean's most beautifully crafted song to date. The music of Pink Mountaintops can be saucy, spiritual, or any combination of these things, though not usually elaborate and minimal at the same time. You get the idea..
