Purple Mountains is the eponymous debut studio album by American indie rock band Purple Mountains. It was released on July 12, 2019 by Drag City. It is the first new music from David Berman since he disbanded Silver Jews in 2009.
Created over the course of five years, the album experienced many failed attempts at writing and recording with different musicians and producers. It was eventually made with members of the band Woods and recorded mostly in Chicago but also in Brooklyn.
The album was preceded by the singles "All My Happiness Is Gone", "Darkness and Cold", and "Margaritas at the Mall". It received positive reception from critics.
