Hello, poor neglected Vox thing! This will be a lazy post today because I've already got all the mp3s uploaded and ready for listening/download in this helpful Box.net folder. (If you should, in the future, decide to sign up for a Box.net thingy, please use lunarcurtain@comcast.net as a referral and I think I get...something. Maybe? I think so, I'm not sure, but I thought I'd mention it just in case, hah.)
Anyway, this week's month's selection is a lot of The Mountain Goats. I first heard these dudes 5+ years ago when Napster was still huge and free and they were a featured artist. "Family Happiness" was the song, and it was so raw and visceral that I don't know why I stopped at that one.
Then a month ago my brother told me about this awesome song he heard: "Southwood Plantation Road" by The Mountain Goats! I remembered they were pretty rad five years ago, and now I present you with the aforementioned folder.
Track list:
- Cold Milk Bottle
- Cotton
- Dance Music
- Family Happiness
- Going to Georgia (Live)
- Going to Georgia
- Jenny
- Love Cuts the Strings
- Southwood Plantation Road
- The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton
- The Black Ice Cream Song
- There Will Be No Divorce
- This Year
- You Or Your Memory
ALSO! Of Montreal's new album, Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? is due out on Jan. 23, and because they are AWESOME, they've put up a full preview here, and also a download of "Heimdalsgate Like A Promethean Curse," which I guess is the first single. I love them, oh.
