Today, however, they whirl the dial on the in-house wayback machine and travel toward the future: the year 2000 and Mary Timony’s debut solo album, Mountains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemastered by Bob Weston, Mountains comes back to us as a gold foil-embossed gatefold 2xLP and will include the previously unreleased original takes of “Return to Pirates,” “Poison Moon,” and “Killed by the Telephone,” which were delivered along with the original master tapes 20 years ago, but were omitted from the final album. The record is completed by a newly recorded orchestral version of “Valley of One Thousand Perfumes” produced by composer Joe Wong (Russian Doll, Midnight Gospel) and mixed by Dave Fridmann. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the time of its original release, Timony called Mountains, “A Trip to the New Underworld.” “A bunch of hard stuff was happening in my life: family illnesses, people dying, people leaving, relationships ending. I fell into a deep depression,” she explains. “I tried new ways of making music: I tried writing songs without any filter at all, and I purposely didn't think about what the music would sound like to anyone else. I was only interested in describing what was in my head.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecorded and mixed in Boston alongside Christina Files and Eric Masunaga and in Chicago with Bob Weston, Mountains found Timony dialing into territory that was barer and more confessional than her work in Helium. Stark arrangements were augmented with newly ornate instrumentation -- piano, vibraphone, and viola -- and the lyrics were tinted with slyly occult imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Listening back to Mountains now I am struck most by how raw it sounds,” says Timony. “I hear the depression and angst, but also I hear all of that darkness disappearing through the power of music and friendship—and turning into songs during those happy and productive months recording and hanging out in Christina’s loft in downtown Boston.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"pdp-jss-groupTrackList-160\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eDungeon Dance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003ePoison Moon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eI Fire Myself\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eThe Bell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003ePainted Horses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eThe Hour Glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003e13 Bees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eThe Golden Fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eWhisper From the Tree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003e1542\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eValley of One Thousand Perfumes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eTiger Rising\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eAn-deluzion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eThe Fox and Hound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eRider on the Stormy Sea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eReturn to Pirates (Kingston St. Session)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003ePoison Moon (Kingston St. Session)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eKilled by the Telephone (Kingston St. Session)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-161\"\u003eValley of One Thousand Perfumes (Orchestral Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFactory sealed.
