Ball of Wax 34 Songs: Yucca Mountain – “Garden”

Yucca Mountain is the current musical manifestation of Ball of Wax mainstay Jeremy Burk. Burk has a towering rasp of a voice – a legitimate, powerful instrument capable of stopping a room in its tracks. Burk puts that voice to good use in leading Yucca Mountain through “Garden.” The first couple of verses stalk pretty loosely around a simple chord progression before the tension builds with a double time bassline and antsy drumming. By the two and a half minute mark the tension comes to a boil and Burk unleashes his bestial pipes to push the song to a foreboding climax. “Garden” is a gnarly yeti of a song and a nice change-up to the more subdued vocal/guitar tracks on Ball of Wax 34.
