I like the Mountain Goats and have liked them for a long damn time, but I can't think of one single interesting or noteworthy thing to say about this new record by them. Like most of John Darnielle's output since going from a solo act to a band, it's a very nice album. I realized a few years back I'm just not likely to get as excited for this material as I did when I heard "All Hail West Texas" for the first time, and that's ok. If you've liked their last few "full band" records, I can't imagine you wouldn't like this.
