Pink Mountaintops 'Get Back' out April 29, 2014 on Jagjaguwar.
Artist/ Director Statement: McBean overheard Jaffe drunkenly bragging in a backyard about her state of the art 80's VHS camera. Ambulance City will mark the first time they've worked together since 1431 while serving drinks at Joan of Arc's execution.
Inspired by Swedish Erotica, Cpl. Klinger, and totes non-poser aspirations.
Thanks to Valley Recording Company, the Tam O'Shanter and to all the entities which inspired us to create such a groundbreaking work of art and depth.
2009?s Outside Love, the last album from Stephen McBean’s Black Mountain side project Pink Mountaintops, was one of the best and most slept-on rock records in recent memory, and you owe it to yourself to give it a listen on Spotify or whatever. The band recently announced plans to release Get Back, their long-overdue follow-up, and while lead single “North Hollywood Microwaves” was an endearingly batshit piece of music, it didn’t exactly raise hopes that they’d equal Outside Love anytime soon. So it’s heartening that “Ambulance City,” the second song the band has shared, is a hearty and straightforward rocker, even if the video is all vaguely unsettling Harmoney Korine-esque lo-fi ookiness, with McBean wearing a nurse’s uniform and shit. Olivia Jaffe directed the video. -- Stereogum
