The Mountain Goats' Heretic Pride/Satanic Messiah followup The Life Of The World To Come came out yesterday. So far we've listened to the downcast, homeless nostalgia of "Genesis 3:23" and the totally devastating "Matthew 25:21." Out there spreading more verses, John Darnielle just performed the more upbeat, apocalyptic "Psalms 40:2" on The Colbert Report. (The accompanying Bible passage: "He lifted me out of the slimy pit, / out of the mud and mire; / he set my feet on a rock / and gave me a firm place to stand.") JD also sat down to discuss the "cheerful desolation" of his lyricism and why mountain goats are the coolest animals.Continue reading The Mountain Goats Perform "Psalms 40:2," Discuss Suicidal Mountain Goats On Colbert...

Needless to say, there’s a lot to process here. Watch it below. Transcendental Youth is out now on Merge...

Next week, the Mountain Goats drop their new album Transcendental Youth, though god knows we probably won’t untangle all the lyrical tangles until long, long after that. Mountain Goats albums, after all, are like that. But now we can get a head start on it. We’ve already heard early song “Cry For Judas,” b...

I gave up on Showtime’s mom-dealing-pot dramedy Weeds years ago, during the scene where Snoop Dogg showed up and started rapping about “milf weed.” The world, however, apparently didn’t. The show is now in its eighth and final season, and it’s resurrected its old gimmick in which various differen...

It’s called “Cry For Judas,” and it’s an expansively bouncy tune that, as promised, makes prominent use of a horn section, wh...
