AlMApr 19, 2005A silver mt zion manifest the soundtrack to our daily lives....and in this world of pain and suffering and unknown security, their latest album punctuate our routine as we struggle thorugh the daily grind that is the rat race. Pure sonic love, but not for the faint hearted or those contemplating ending their lives...DONT DO IT!

johnkApr 13, 20059, just for the very ending of the last song alone. and track 2 is also incredable, and some of the groups best work. overall, a great release. and i personally dont see the complaints on efrims style/ singing voice. perhaps youve never heard people like tom waits or bob dylan sing. just stop complaining and listen.

JaredRApr 12, 2005TSMZMOATLLB has another success. The majority of complaints I have seen about "Horses in the Sky" ask for less vocals, more instrumentls. But that is just hair splitting. It's good, not "Born Into Trouble as the Sparks Fly Upward" good, but better than 95% of the competition.

Horses... is Silver Mount Zion’s most musically satisfying disc to date because, while the well-worn formulae are present, sonic variance and compositional modification has brought a welcome diversity to an increasingly wearisome aesthetic.
-
Whereas previous efforts spawned a shrouded sadness that sought engagement by keeping a distance, this work squares its shoulders at once, fervent in its desire to have its audience lend an ear for at least a moment.

Silver Mt Zion make music of extremes; very simple, inordinately miserable, utterly emotionally invasive, performed with such total, galvanising conviction that it's terrifying at times.
