From Jagjaguwar:

BLACK MOUNTAIN's "In The Future" is now available for pre-order. When you pre-order the record, whether it is the limited-edition 2xCD version, the regular 1xCD version or the 2xLP version, you will receive a digital download code that will allow you to get FREE FULL ALBUM MP3s as early as January 8, up to two weeks before the release date. (And if it isn't obvious, the 2xCD version is the same price as the 1xCD version, and comes with three additional songs, so you might as well order that while supplies last.) The link will be up until the release date, January 22.

BLACK MOUNTAIN RETURN TO THE UK AND EUROPE, PERFORM AT ATP
From Jagjaguwar press release:

It's been nearly three years since Canadian quintet Black Mountain's eponymous debut - "a modern heavy psych masterpiece", according to Mojo magazine. Fans included The Flaming Lips, J Mascis and Mudhoney, the latter inviting British Columbia's finest to join them at All Tomorrow's Parties in April 2006; Black Mountain will return to the festival in December 2007 at the invitation of Nightmare Before Christmas curators Portishead.

Immediately preceding their 2007 ATP appearance, Black Mountain will be performing throughout Europe and the UK (see tour dates section). They will be performing many songs from their upcoming second full-length called "In The Future", which comes out on CD, LP, and as a limited edition double CD on Jagjaguwar on January 21, 2008. If, as Plan B magazine noted of the first LP, "Every song could be an album to itself, by a band with lesser ideas and the ability to express them", then "In The Future" sees those distinctive individual strands woven into a seamless studio tapestry that's a quantum leap, both sonically and compositionally, from its predecessor.

Stay tuned for additional Black Mountain announcements regarding extensive touring throughout 2008, as plans are in the works to hit up every nook and cranny of this wondrous globe. For those who can't wait to experience some live Black Mountain, check out their live performance at Pop Montreal that happened in October, courtesy of CBC Radio:

ROOM 13
We are excited to announce we will be touring North America again for the first time in almost two years this fall of 2007. After the North American tour we will be heading over to the UK and Europe -- dates will be announced soon. The new album is called "In The Future", and it is coming out on Jagjaguwar in January of 2008.

We're gonna load the van with a very special tour-only 12-inch release featuring two new songs, "Bastards of Light" and "Thirteen Walls", that you can't get anywhere else and that won't be on "In The Future". You'll have to come say hello or convince your friend to buy one then steal it off them after they pass out to get the 12-inch. There will be a digital coupon that will become active on November 13, providing a preview of "In The Future". It is our's and Jagjaguwar's ham-fisted way of giving the first introduction of the new album to friends and fans who came out to the shows. The record sleeve also doubles as a tent!

Supporting us for most of the North American tour-dates will be the Cave Singers, our good friends from Seattle, who are releasing their excellent debut called "Invitation Songs" on Matador on September 25.

Swim before it starts raining,
Black Mountain
