Mount Desert Oakland, California
Mount Desert is a San Francisco Bay Area-based two-piece, with roots in psychedelic rock, post rock, blues, and metal. We
consider this band to be a true culmination of all the music by which we are inspired.
Bands we draw on include Pink Floyd, Neurosis, Cerberus Shoal, All Them Witches, Crowbar, Mono, Corrosion of Conformity, and countless others who have inspired us along the way.

Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space.
