The Revivalists "Men Amongst Mountains"
FORMAT | Double LP
New Orleans rock hybrid The Revivalists is an album about growth. It is appropriate, then, that the band set out to challenge itself while writing and recording their latest batch of music. The Revivalists cloistered themselves within the intimate confines of Bogalusa, LA's Studio in the Country for nearly two weeks while recording Men Amongst Mountains. Mirroring the broader themes which connect the individual songs on the album, the recording and instrumentation on Men Amongst Mountains represents the next step in The Revivalists' ever-evolving depth and maturity. Like the band's vaunted live shows, Men Amongst Mountains can and will turn on a dime. The gentle gives way to the heavy, the acoustic to the orchestral. Despair becomes hope. Fire becomes light. At times, the obstacles and troubles in our lives can make the world seem impossibly, hopelessly big. Men Amongst Mountains, ultimately, is about the journey that makes us greater than the mountains standing in our way.
