Black Mountain releases "Wucan" video, tours the world

Hey, kids! Enjoy getting psychedelic in the desert? Possibly with a talking coyote? Boy, does Black Mountain have a video for you! The Sabbath-worshiping British Columbians recently retreated to an anonymously sandy place to film the clip for "Wucan," and it's pretty much exactly what you'd expect. Tripped out visuals and the usual Black Mountain rawk abound (see below).

Meanwhile, the band will kick off a scattered set of dates tomorrow at the Green Man Festival in Wales, alongside all kinds of awesomeness included but not limited to Iron & Wine, Spiritualized, Super Furry Animals, Drive-By Truckers, The National, Fuck Buttons, Caribou and many, many more. If you've got piles of expendable income and nothing to do this weekend, we suggest you scope out a flight. If not, perhaps one of the dates listed underneath the "Wucan" video is scheduled in your neck of the woods:
