I always liked a couple of their songs, but been listening to the post 2000 albums, and they're freakin' fantastic!!! I wanted to say this in an existing thread, so if someone can point me to it, I'll repeat my praise there! (the search thing is crashin' on me when I try to find it)

Recommend stuff to me people!

I started listening to Field Music again. God, I love that album.

I can't really get into the Mountain Goats for the same reason I can't get into TMBG and (to a lesser extent) Decemberists.

I don't really enjoy the Mountain Goats all that much, but i think John Darnelle has written a handful of great songs, and i think he is a really great example of someone who uses their 'clout' well in the indie world (always taking local bands on tour, really supporting his local scene, etc.).

Ahhhh... an amazing band (if you can call them a "band").

I caught them following the obvious Neutral Milk Hotel->Decemberists->Mountain Goats path. I've got "All Hail West Texas" spinning for entire weeks.
