Produced by Davidson and engineered and mixed by Adrian Olsen, the album follows Meek’s 2018 self-titled debut and 2021’s Two Saviors, with records as a part of Big Thief in-between - \u003cem\u003eU.F.O.F.\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eTwo Hands\u003c\/em\u003e (2019), and \u003cem\u003eDragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You\u003c\/em\u003e (2022).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHaunted Mountain\u003c\/em\u003e is about love and... something other. Something bigger than love, a soulfulness, or a soul seeking fullness. In the songs, five co-written alongside longtime friend and musical hero Jolie Holland and one set to the words of Judee Sill’s final journal entry, love often assumes a natural form, sometimes it becomes artificial, sometimes cosmic. It is a consciousness here, interacting with the lovers, watching them sometimes, becoming them sometimes. Yet romance is not the only form of love \u003cem\u003eHaunted Mountain\u003c\/em\u003e explores. The epic ‘Lullabies’ examines the inexhaustible connection between mother and son; a platonic bond appears in ‘Where you’re coming from’; and grief leads to communion with the dead in ‘Lagrimas’.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe songs were written in mountains; by cold springs in the Serra da Estrela of Portugal, on the submerged volcano of Milos in the Cyclades, Valle Onsernone in the Swiss Alps (where the cover photo was taken), and the Santa Monica range where Buck now calls home - all where his new love was born.  “Love inhabits your environment, animates the inanimate, charging everything around you with a sense of meaning,” Meek says. Haunted Mountain asks, \"is love a form of magic?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack List:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMood Ring\u003cbr\u003eHaunted Mountain\u003cbr\u003eParadise\u003cbr\u003eCyclades\u003cbr\u003eSecret Side\u003cbr\u003eDidn’t Know You Then Undae Dunes\u003cbr\u003eWhere You’re Coming From Lullabies\u003cbr\u003eLagrimas\u003cbr\u003eImage\u003cbr\u003eThe Rainbow\u003c\/p\u003e Shop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e 24\/7.\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Matador","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57416268185935,"sku":"191400060104","price":3.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/8725\/2047\/files\/o1f03fszixfw3z04ddl3.jpg?v=1775558374","url":"https:\/\/vibesvinyl.com\/products\/buck-meek-big-thief-haunted-mountain-indie-exclusive-clear-green-vinyl-preorder","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
