(calling out now, LP3 will be about him meeting a new woman and struggling with his guilt at how he botched his last relationship)



Probably also a tint of finally finding is footing with music, getting famous and coping with it in unhealthy ways

Good review chan, love a good moby-dick reference. Although regarding the first sentence isn’t it more in a “narrative / narrative expectations” sense and less “musically” that the album “ends before it ends”? Maybe I misunderstand tho

I mean musically. If you listen to it, it sounds like a final track in every way. I see why it might be phrased confusingly tho.



Feather, A Dotted Line is their best.

yeah that clear eyes fanzine thing was cool. It's really weird how he never talks about it or promotes it.

the ace enders songs are pretty good but not amazing. i really love campbell's three songs though.



also, "lone star for breakfast, whatever i can scavenge for lunch" is his most john darnielle-like lyric ever

With all of the Mountain Goats comparisons (and obviously the “Going to Georgia” cover) it’s time for my annual “try to get into the Mountain Goats” period. Their discography is just so intimidating.
