The Mountain Goats – Songs for Pierre Chuvin (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Recorded during the early weeks of the pandemic lockdown, Songs for Pierre Chuvin finds John Darnielle returning to the raw, intimate boombox recordings that built the Mountain Goats' cult following through the 1990s. The album takes its title from historian Pierre Chuvin, whose work on the last pagans of the ancient world clearly resonated with Darnielle's longstanding obsession with faith, myth, and the edges of civilization.
A surprise cassette released April 2020, Songs for Pierre Chuvin is the Mountain Goats’ first all-boombox album since 2002’s All Hail West Texas. After selling over 4000 cassettes in a matter of minutes, the avid Mountain Goats fanbase has demanded more and we are happy to acquiesce! Songs for Pierre Chuvin will be available on CD and LP on March 26, 2021.
