Black Mountain announce LP of unreleased material

There aren’t many (active) rock bands left that we freak out about, but Black Mountain is one of them. The Canadian rockers knocked us out of our seats last year with the mighty Wilderness Heart (which, by the way, made our list of Top-25 Albums last year), but they’ve been laying pretty low in 2011. So we’re stoked to hear they’re scoring a new, post-apocalyptic surf video, Year Zero (trailer below).

No, the band isn’t writing new material, instead they’re pulling together a bunch of unreleased stuff for Year Zero soundtrack. And if you want to hear it, you’ll need a record player. Fortunately, Jagjaguwar records is only releasing the soundtrack on vinyl (sometime in January). Awesome. Hm. Where have I heard this before? Oh, that’s right, another one of our fav rock bands, White Denim, pulled a similar stunt with Jack White’s Third Man Records back in September.

    Wow, I'm very excited for this. I don't do records but I'm sure it will be available in other formats once it's released....

    Year Zero huh? I wonder if they are fans of NIN.
