Mount Eerie (band) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mount Eerie
Mount Eerie is the musical project of Anacortes, Washington-based songwriter and producer Phil Elverum. Elverum (formerly of The Microphones) is the principal member of the band, but has collaborated with many other musicians on his records and in live performances. Most of Mount Eerie's releases have been issued on Elverum's label P.W. Elverum & Sun, Ltd., and feature inventive and highly detailed packaging with his own artwork.〔(Bangback.com (via Web Archive) - Phil Elverum: Print pioneer of the Pacific Northwest )〕 ==History== Following the release of The Microphones' ''Mount Eerie'' album, Elverum announced that he would no longer use the Microphones moniker, opting instead to record under the name Mount Eerie, after the area in Anacortes, WA called Mount Erie. In an interview with CITR-FM's ''Discorder'' in September 2003, Elverum gave his reasons for this change: "Mount Eerie is a new project. The Microphones was completed, or at least at a good stopping point. I did it because I am ready for new things. I am new."〔(Discorder.ca - The Microphones )〕 Around this time, Elverum also changed the spelling of his own surname (previously, Elvrum).〔(Pitchfork Media - Interviews: Microphones )〕 The first Mount Eerie releases included a limited edition CD-R of new recordings (''Seven New Songs of "Mount Eerie"''), a 12" EP recorded live to acetate with local musicians during an Australian tour (''Mount Eerie Dances with Wolves''), and a live triple album released by Burnt Toast Vinyl in late 2004 (''Live in Copenhagen''). Elverum returned to his hometown of Anacortes (having spent several years living in Olympia, WA whilst recording for K Records) and established his own label and imprint, P.W. Elverum & Sun, Ltd. The first Mount Eerie studio album was ''"No Flashlight" Songs of the Fulfilled Night'', released in August 2005 and featuring an extremely large fold-out sleeve with extensive footnotes and explanations. Elverum has continued to tour and record prolifically in recent years, to considerable critical acclaim.〔(Metacritic - Mount Eerie )〕 Noteworthy releases have included ''Mount Eerie pts. 6 & 7'' (a hardcover coffee-table book of Elverum's photography, packaged with a 10" record), ''Lost Wisdom'' (recorded with Julie Doiron and Frederick Squire), and ''Wind's Poem'' (a black metal-influenced double-album, recorded with Nicholas Krgovich). In 2012, Elverum released two albums, ''Clear Moon'' and ''Ocean Roar'', and was chosen to perform at Jeff Mangum's All Tomorrow's Parties festival in Minehead, England.〔(ATP curated by Jeff Mangum )〕 A new Mount Eerie double-album entitled ''Sauna'' was released on February 2, 2015.
