Heretic Pride
Inlander:
It's a fine album. I only got it a few days ago (my local record store proprietor usually sneaks things out a day or two early to get the jump on the big chain stores) and, as with all Darnielle's work, it's going to take many listens to fully absorb it. First impressions are that it's a step up from Get Lonely which, though beautiful, was a bit one-note. It's interesting to hear Darnielle going back to story-telling after the more confessional songs of the last few albums. If anything, Heretic Pride seems like a continuation of the work he did on the Babylon Springs E.P. (which people outside Australia might not have, as it was originally released as a tie-in to his tour here a couple of years ago).

This is pretty much the first Mountain Goats I've heard and I'm really digging it.

I'm listening to it right now and I'm liking it, but not as much as his older stuff. This is my first listen through, though.
Ishotdanieljohnston: Get The Sunset Tree. It's gorgeous.
Ishotdanieljohnston:
Yeah I hear that one is really good. Though I really like this album it does feel like he could do alot better. The drummer kicks ass though.
TheFuriousWombat:
Also get "All Hail West Texas". It has a lot of fuzz because it's very lo-fi and it's pretty much just Darnielle and an acoustic guitar but damn is it good song writing.
