Mount Righteous is the second full-length album by Grapevine, Texas based band Mount Righteous, released on their label Righteous Records on April 3rd, 2010. It was produced by John Congleton of The Paper Chase. Pegasus News states that, "Each track is edgy and complex, which is something the band set out to accomplish from the outset. It is fair to say they have accomplished their goal. This album was a daring move, to make such a dramatic shift away from what we are used to hearing from them." ^[1] The album is seen as a major progression in Mount Righteous' sound - from lighthearted on their first freshman release, When The Music Starts, as well the following Open Your Mouth EP - to a faster, wilder attitude. Their new sound has been labeled as both anti-orchestra by Mount Righteous themselves, as well as polka-punk ^[2] in varying reviews of the album.
