Mountainhead

by Everything Everything

Mountainhead cover art

The band's seventh studio album is a concept record centered around a dystopian society where individuals with the lowest social status live at the base of a giant mountain, compelled to excavate a hole in its summit. This society's ultimate goal is to build the mountain so high that it reaches the sun, a satire on capitalism and the pursuit of upward mobility. The album was written and produced by the band members themselves, marking a return to a more hands-on, collaborative creative process.
