Plenty of contemporary bands turn to classic psychedelic rock for inspiration, but few interpret the source material as faithfully or convincingly as Black Mountain. Led by guitarist and songwriter Stephen McBean and featuring the Grace Slick-like vocals of Amber Webber, the Vancouver five-piece puts a heavy rock spin on the kaleidoscopic sounds of the ’60s. Keyboardist Jeremy Schmidt also plays a major role on the group’s newest album, this year’s IV, which incorporates everything from interstellar synth melodies to lethargic downer-folk balladry. Black Mountain performs at the Georgia Theatre Tuesday along with Majeure, a one-man synth-kraut project from Zombi’s A.E. Paterra.
