Add to del.It's a mark of the curiousness of A Mountain of One's music that my attempts to compliment them frequently come out sounding decidedly ambivalent.Bark Psychosis's Hex with all the sharp edges massaged away.Swedish duo Studio, albeit with a less clearly pronounced debt to dance music.Verve did that too once.More insidiously, if A Mountain of One follow the Verve in becoming a ubiquitous rock music choice for dance fans, it will be as much because they embody what dance fans often presume to be the point of rock (the heightened role of performance, the appearance of lyrical depth...Tenuous though it is, this line of communication with dance music remains the key to A Mountain of One's success.But such gestures feel primarily aesthetic, as if A Mountain of One love rock music mostly for the sheer sonic loveliness of its serious vocals and soaring choruses.Bird's fragile voice over a whimsical disco groove that becomes progressively overshadowed by a chorus of moaning guitars.It's not a question of whether A Mountain of One believe in the brand of rococo spiritualism they evoke, but rather whether the song can support the amassed weight of meaning and significance invested in it.Perhaps such pitfalls are a necessary part of A Mountain of One's considerable charms.The song moves from fiery certainty towards a tentativeness that is beguiling, more fragile hymn than rousing congregational chorus.Rivers Cuomo Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo
