Elverum was also featured on the 20th anniversary reissue Mirah's debut album, You Think It’s Like This but Really It’s Like This; performing an "Of Pressure" cover. In January 2023, Elverum released a new song as a contribution to the 20th anniversary compilation album from the Japanese 7e.p. Records Colors. The track, "Huge Fire" was written and recorded in the month prior to its release. The song marks his first original release since 2020's Microphones in 2020 and his first release under the Mount Eerie moniker since 2019. Artistry Elverum's music under the Mount Eerie moniker expresses a close relationship to nature and the Pacific Northwest, in particular the minute details. Early Mount Eerie albums often discussed how "the distinction between wild and not wild is an illusion". In a 2014 interview, Elverum discussed how his choice for moniker coming from a mountain in Anacortes was a way of infusing a sense of regional connection between the music and the place. His lyrical matter has been seen by some to be more introspective than his work before the name change. Brady Baker of Spectrum Culture called Mount Eerie "a solid foundation for an ever-expanding lyrical labyrinth that centers on his introspective philosophy." Eric Hill of Exclaim! believed the opposite, writing that Elverum's work under the Mount Eerie title is more "universal and, at times, hermetic." Elverum also believed that the songs under Mount Eerie were more universal describing them as "this one long chain, about the idea of singing from the point of view of this dark looming mountain shape, while Microphones songs, historically, have been more personally narrative, maybe more human." After the death of Elverum's wife, Geneviève Castrée, in 2016 his lyrics became more direct and plainspoken. Musically, Elverum has experimented with "black metal, lo-fi krautrock, fuzzy post-rock textures and Auto-Tune experimentation". My Bloody Valentine, George Gurdjieff and black metal have all been cited by Elverum as influences on the project. Reception Kerrang! included Mount Eerie on their list of 10 non-metal artists enjoyed by metal fans.
