Young Mountain is the debut studio album by the American band This Will Destroy You. It was originally self-recorded and self-released in 2005,[5] and was intended to be a demo to be sold after local shows.[6] Although it was then only available as a CD-R,[7] the album began to receive press mentions. The band soon attracted the attention of Magic Bullet Records,[6] who repackaged the record and released it in CD format in June 2006.[5][8] This was followed by a cassette release in December of the same year and a vinyl release the following March.[8] The album has generally received positive reviews,[6] including being named best album of 2006 by the editor of Rock Sound magazine, Darren Taylor.[9]
On October 28, 2016 This Will Destroy You announced that they would be re-releasing the album on CD and LP for its 10th anniversary through Magic Bullet Records. It also comes with a previously unreleased track from the Young Mountain sessions titled "Sleep".
