Portland207

Good music makes a guest appearance in Portland.  Black Mountain is playing tonight at Space.  These long-haired hippies from the country to our North are out promoting their latest album In the Future.  They are one of the better groups to come through Portland in a while and are playing one of the best venues in town.  The always over-zealous folks at Rolling Stone gave their latest offering 3.5 stars out of 5.  For a more rounded review, go to Pitchfork Media.  Their sound can best be described as what would happen if you dropped 3 Zeppelin albums, a Sabbath tape and a few spoonfuls of MMJ into a blender and hit puree for 30 seconds.  What the critics have dubbed, “psychedelic stoner rock.”  Right.  Go to their website to watch a video of their appearance on Conan O’Brien last week to draw your own conclusions.  More info on start time etc. in the To Do section.
