| For simplicity, they are often referred to as Silver Mt.Formed in 1999, the band currently comprises seven members, of which three are also involved with Godspeed You!The band have released four studio albums and one EP, publishing them through the influential record label Constellation.As other records were created, their sound and membership progressively changed from a sequestered trio to a boisterous septet.The album, which consists of four tracks, is wholly comprised of songs previously debuted at live performances.Several members of the band are also working on a live album tentatively titled Fuck You Drakulas.Black Emperor in November 2000.Zion originally began as a project in which Efrim Menuck hoped to learn how to score music.Menuck's decision to record an album was partly inspired by the death of his dog Wanda, who died while he was on tour with Godspeed You!It also served as an outlet, allowing him to experiment with ideas and sounds he did not feel that he could effectively create through Godspeed You!Seeking help in the albums creation, Menuck enlisted violinist Sophie Trudeau and bassist Thierry Amar, two musicians also involved with Godspeed You!The band made their live debut on March 6, 1999 at Musique fragile, a performance venue organized by the record label Constellation.Their substitute was instead provided through recorded audio samples produced by Sophie Trudeau.Joy from Heaven's Mercied Hole").At the time at least, he did not want to be the focus of the band's music but rather wished to use vocals as a stylistic tool.Before the release of their second album, the band recruited three more musicians, expanding the group to a sextet.The new members were cellist Beckie Foon, guitarist Ian Ilavsky, and violinist Jessica Moss.In fact, the liner notes suggest that the 'rusted satellites' of the album title refer to the choir pulled together to sing on the album.Silver Mt Zion (only Efrim and Sophie's names are missing from the list).After a break due to Godspeed You!Black Emperor activities, the band set out on its second tour in 2004.Plans for a longer tour were cut short after Sophie Trudeau, one of two violinists for the band, broke her collarbone.In 2006 the band headed to Europe at the end of April and they played shows up until the start of June.Europe, they premiered two new songs, "Engine Broke" and "13 Blues for Thirteen Moons".Names
The name A Silver Mt.Zion would seem to refer to Temple Mount, the highest point in Jerusalem.However, Efrim later noted in an interview with David Garland, host of Spinning on Air from WNYC radio, that the name hailed from a misheard song lyric.Efrim himself is Jewish, and motifs relating to Judaism are occasionally present in the band's music (he described the band's recording of their first album as a "Jewish experience."Lyrics and themes
There are strong political motifs in the band's music.The song "The Triumph of Our Tired Eyes" could be interpreted as lamenting the present state of the world while espousing strong hope for the future.It also references the old anarchist song, "To The Barricades," sung by anarchists during the Spanish Revolution.The band's most recent album, Horses in the Sky, contains ostensibly political tracks, including "Ring Them Bells (Freedom Has Come and Gone)", and "God Bless Our Dead Marines".However, it is worth noting that when asked about the political elements of A Silver Mt.Blues for Thirteen Moons
