15 February 2016, 12:40 | Written by Laurence Day

Canadian rockers Black Mountain have announced new record IV and shared the video for eight-and-a-half minute lead cut "Mothers Of The Sun".

The clip is helmed by Ben Jacques and Justin Gradin. Speaking about the track, the band's Stephen McBean says: "Sometimes a riff hangs out in the basement for 10 years before it's finally ready to hit the streets."

As well as the album and track, Black Mountain have detailed a mammoth set of North American and European tour dates.

IV is out 1 April on Jagjaguwar, and follows 2010's Wilderness Heart. The band released a 10th anniversary edition of their self-titled debut last year.
