Black Mountain
Druganaut EP (Jagjaguwar Records)

By: Alex Steininger

On the Druganaut EP, a virtual single for the song of the same name found on Black Mountain self-titled, debut full-length. Black Mountain mastermind Stephen McBean (also of the Pink Mountaintops) offers up an eight-minute version of "Druganaut" (the album cut is just shy of four minutes), along with two bonus tracks not found on the original 12" release. With "Bicycle Man" and "No Satisfaction" (campfire version), here is another fine offering from Black Mountain, steeped in psychedelia and an unabashed love of Velvet Underground. Dark and haunting, as well as eerily alluring, Black Mountain will drag you into their world - and you'll dig it. I'll give this a B-.
