Whoever throws bluesrock-soaked riffs around, then stretches them to a lustfully painful length, whoever calls his fourth album, on which all this happens - among many others - "IV", is either intoxicated (could fit) or masochistic (doesn't fit). After all, he wants to be compared to Led Zep and/or Black Sabbath. And who can stand the comparison! Black Mountain can do it. Even loose.

Even if the master appears here rather stylish than excessive, "Mountain Climbing" bundles all qualities of Bonamassas twelfth studio album "Blues Of Desperation" in a perfect way: Biting songwriting, powerful groove and earthy guitar sounds refined by a top production.
