<P>- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -</P>
<P> The Mountain Goats are, for all practical purposes, the endlessly clever and<BR> prolific John Darnielle and whatever musicians he surrounds himself with,<BR> which means that while the soundscape may change from project to project, the<BR> overall tone and feel of Darnielle's work remains remarkably consistent. At<BR> his best, he writes finely observed, slightly surreal, impressionistic<BR> vignettes that manage to mix life as we live it with life as we wish we could<BR> live it, and as such he has more in common with a short-story writer than he<BR> does with the typical singer/songwriter.</P>
<P> Taking the name from the Screamin' Jay Hawkins song "Big Yellow Coat,"<BR> Darnielle first donned the Mountain Goats moniker in 1991 while working as a<BR> nurse in a California state hospital, and began releasing cassette-only<BR> albums for the Shrimper label. Despite attracting a devoted underground<BR> following (or, possibly, because of it), the Mountain Goats continued to<BR> release songs in cassette form only for many years, using tape hiss virtually<BR> as an additional instrument. Besides innumerable compilation tracks, the<BR> Mountain Goats have also released many 7" singles for over a dozen labels.<BR> Their full-length albums include Nine Black Poppies and Zopilote Machine<BR> (both released in 1995), Sweden (1996), Full Force Galesburg (1997), and<BR> Nothing for Juice (1997). Protein Source of the Future...NOW! and Bitter<BR> Melon Farm (both 1999 releases) collected many early tape tracks and singles.</P>
<P><BR> Darnielle began the new millennium with The Coroner's Gambit for Absolutely<BR> Kosher before signing to 4AD for the release of the surprisingly polished<BR> Tallahassee in 2002. We Shall All Be Healed followed in 2004, and one year<BR> later Darnielle was back with The Sunset Tree. Remaining prolific as ever,<BR> Darnielle turned away from the intensity of The Sunset Tree for a calmer,<BR> more reflective set of songs on 2006's Get Lonely. The accessible and assured<BR> Heretic Pride appeared in 2008. Next up was the Bible verse-inspired The Life<BR> of the World to Come, the group's sixth album for 4AD, in 2010. Switching to<BR> Merge Records in 2011, Darnielle released All Eternals Deck, which was<BR> recorded in four different studios in Brooklyn, Boston, North Carolina, and<BR> Florida with four different producers -- John Congleton, Scott Solter,<BR> Brandon Eggleston, and Morbid Angel guitarist and Hate Eternal frontman Erik<BR> Rutan -- helming various tracks.</P>
