   About Snake Mountain (2006-2009)
"Beard-wielding warriors of Calgary" - Rob Strawberry, Beatroute "My favourite local release this year. These guys came out of nowhere and along with numerous other releases this year reminded me that the local scene keeps getting better.Crushing walls of guitar, plangent melodies, pounding bass and crashing drums. I was lucky enough to snag these guys for a live performance on my funding drive show, and I must say, it was truly superb. I can't wait to hear more from them in the future." - Evan Deans, CJSW 90.9 FM Librarian "Epic instrumental rock. I give Snake Mountain two thumbs up on creating rad tunes for my ears...and yours! Fans of Tool and Sigur Ros can now agree on an album to throw on the stereo" - Myke Atkinson, 2007 Overview, Beatroute/FFWD Magazine "It was like they possessed Triton’s conch and were trumpeting it…calling people forth.The crowd one by one slowly staggered toward the stage and simultaneously started to bob their heads to the sound. The band played a tight crisp set that got the horde moving.Their sound garnered them applause and head thrashing from the crowd. You can tell that they put a lot of labour into creating their unique sound." - Trista Orchard, Sled Islands Churns the Waters of the Ship and Anchor, Avenue Magazine "Pour un groupe qui existe depuis 2006 seulement, le premier demo de Snake Mountain a de quoi impressionner! Presque entièrement instrumental, l'album offre un savant mélange de post-rock et de métal rappelant Isis, tout en restant plus direct et dynamique que ces derniers. Une très belle trouvaille qui nous vient d'une scène en constante expansion: Calgary! -Yannick Valiquette - CHOQ FM, Montreal
"With their background video of swimming penguins and polar bears, the big-haired, bearded Calgarian quartet scared most of the hardcore kiddies outta the building, and played to a crowd of less than 20 people. I must say that I feel sorry for those who left early, because they definitely missed out. Heavy, yet melodic, soothing yet aggressive, Snake Mountain blew the collective minds of all those that remained" Gruesome Greg , toohightogetitright.com

Dear friend
We are so happy to announce

NEW ALBUM IS OUT NOW!!!


Our new album "Herbarium" is out now on CdBaby (MP3 so far, physical CD is on its way).

Diverse palette of styles (post-rock, ambient, electronica, trip-hop, with elements of noise, dub, neoclassic and free improvisation), united by cinematic, slightly pensive mood.

«Herbarium» is called so because of heterogeneity of «songs», which can be compared to miscellaneous leaves in the album, still being belonged to the family of trees. Trying to avoid non-alive metaphors here, only thought of diversity and warm and innermost feeling that herbarium is capable to conjure up. «... This leaf I picked up in the park where I met her, and this - I sat by the river, contemplating...». So tracks were created – one was captured in some magic jam, another – recorded layer by layer and meticulously mixed then, next – cut from previous sessions and so on.

All compositions are united by Poostosh sense of music – mostly pensive, spatial, tender and experimental. There's a lot of soul and charisma in every leaf... So please let your soul look over our HERBARIUM.
