Third Black Mountain's studio album is nice release, full of vintage rock melodies, slight psychedelia and shadows of hard-rock monsters from 70-s.

Band uses there their strong points - excellent male/female vocals duets, melodic tunes and successfully revitalized atmosphere of early 70-s. Happily, they don't sound as clone. Yes, you will easily hear influences of Led Zeppelin, Ozzy's black Sabbath and even early Deep Purple on this album, but musicians are skilled enough to sound on their own manner.

Main accent of all recording is made not in heavy rock legacy, but more classic rock sound with doze of psychedelia. Main problem for many prog fans will be there are not many elements of prog at all in this album's music. But for listeners, angry for talented musicians, reworking best hard rock from early 70-s, this album could be really nice present.

My rating is 3+.
