The Mountain Goats - Soft Targets
“This is on a 7”, a split 7” with John Vanderslice, which is already sold out and I don’t have any copies to sell to you, so I’m sorry about that, alright… Anyway, it’s a love song, after a manner of speaking, it’s called… well, here’s the thing… in, you know, the US military has this way of coming up with nice ways of describing bad things, so, you have “hard targets,” that’s buildings, and military installations, and streets, right? And then you have “soft targets”…and that’s PEOPLE, right? This song is called soft targets…” —John Darnielle, 2003
“Eugene Sue” tMG song that was auctioned earlier this year to raise money for tsunami relief
well, this made my day better.

John Darnielle - Get Your Mom Some Pie for Hanukkah
I don’t know what this song is (the album field is tagged “Goblins: Ha Ha Hanukkah” and I don’t think it’s technically a Mountain Goats song), but it exists. And it’s Hanukkah. And even though neither I nor John Darnielle is Jewish, I guess if there was ever going to be a remotely appropriate time to post this, it’s probably now?
Tallahassee Turns Ten
I’m working on a cover album called Tallahassee Turns Ten to celebrate the tenth birthday of Tallahassee by the Mountain Goats. We’re raising the money to cover the licensing fees for the initial run on Kickstarter. Rewards include limited edition CD of the album, Tallahassee themed magnet poetry and more.
In addition, there are still some tracks that need to be filled and we’re accepting demo submissions on our website (deadline is Dec 20th).
If any of your followers would like to contribute either by backing the kickstarter or submitting a song, we’d love to have them.
