Witch Mountain UK & European Tour Starts May 27; Mobile of Angels Due this Fall

Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad Portland four-piece Witch Mountain are headed back to Europe to tour at the end of the month and into next. That’s great. Go get ’em. What I find even more exciting than that prospect is that Witch Mountain‘s fourth album, theĀ Billy Anderson-helmed Mobile of Angels, is set to release in September. Svart will have it out on Europe and Profound Lore in North America, and Witch Mountain will team with Oslo doomers Tombstones for the tour, so if nothing else, they’re going into the follow-up to 2012’s Cauldron of the Wild (review here) in good company. I’d expect this is the first of several tours to come in support of Mobile of Angels. In addition to crisscrossing the US for Cauldron of the Wild, the band also toured Europe with appearances at Roadburn and both Desertfests, and they’ve shown no signs of slowing down.

The PR wire has it like this:

WITCH MOUNTAIN returns to tour Europe – new album in September

WITCH MOUNTAIN is pleased to announce its second voyage to the old world. This tour comes shortly before the release of WITCH MOUNTAIN’s highly anticipated fourth album, Mobile of Angels. The new record was produced in May 2014 at Type Foundry studios in Portland, Oregon by master “Engine-Ear” Billy Anderson and will feature the artwork of Mark McCormick. With Mobile of Angels, WITCH MOUNTAIN stretches out into new musical frontiers, while still remaining firmly in the tradition of classic heavy doomed rock ‘n’ roll. The album will be released in September 2014 in Europe by SVART RECORDS, and in North America by Profound Lore.

To coincide with the Euro tour, SVART RECORDS is also issuing a limited vinyl version of the band’s earlier album South of Salem. This edition of the classic album is expanded to a double-LP with a second disc consisting of rare tracks, unreleased cover songs, and demos.
