The "trippy country meets stoner rock" of Vancouver's PINK MOUNTAINTOPS is the brainchild of Stephen McBean, who is also the singer/songwriter/guitarist for BLACK MOUNTAIN, which was formerly known as JERK WITH A BOMB. McBean's solo project was also known by another name, ONE EASY SKAG He began playing with JERK WITH A BOMB in the late '90s, and the band issued three albums and a 7" under that name. By late 2003, both Jerk with a Bomb and One Easy Skag were rechristened with their mountainous names, and in the summer of 2004, PINK MOUNTAINTOPS self-titled debut album arrived. While the album became one of 2005's most prominent indie rock releases, McBean brought Pink Mountaintops back the following year with Axis of Evol. The well-received Outside Love arrived in 2009, followed by a pair of Black Mountain releases (In the Future and Wilderness Heart). The group's fourth studio album, Get Back, dropped in early 2014.
