MP3: Mountain Machine - Tigers

“We’re all about the THROBBING, which is quite a clumsy word for an essential action.”

An absolute mystery. Their web presence reveals inheritance from or appreciate for The Shortwave Set, The Stooges and Sun Ra. But Mountain Machine don’t need a narrative, aura or legend that sings louder than their music.

“Tigers” is a instrumental and psychedlic revving up and tuning up of the glam machine: with the right guidance and manual you’d think anyone could do it. But suddenly all those thoughts are blown away and “Tigers” gets a bit breezy. The glockenspeil indicates it’s time to move on; that’s when the throb begins. The journey, landscape and this band’s raw energy rolls out along deserted roads with great speed and engulfs all. Very very good when heard loud.

myspace.com/mountainmachine: album out this year they say. Their song “Mountain Machine” is also worth your ears.
