i can and do enjoy a lot of other music, but the mountain goats will always be the band that feels the mosr objectively correct for me to listen to. like the universe was making me and just decided "yeah she's gonna listen to the mountain goats" and that's just a fact of my life now. i didn't choose the music the music chose me and i suffer the consequences

the mountain goats make music for people who spent their entire lives convinced they would die before they were 17 except now they're 26 and they have a job and friends and hobbies and they're not sure what they're meant to do now that they've survived

the difference between the mountain goats and they might be giants is that you'll hear a tmg song that sounds like absolute nonsense and look up the lyrics and the annotations are like "oh actually this is a reference to the canterbury tales and also a metal band that existed for one month in 1996 and played three shows ever and all existing tapes of their debut album were melted down into glue 20 years ago" vs you'll hear a tmbg song that sounds like absolute nonsense and look up the lyrics and the annotations quote an interview with the johns where they're like "if you even think about interpreting this song we'll come to your house and kill you"

the mountain goats are great because everyone you talk to will say shit like "you really have to understand that their subtle lyricism & deep poetry spoke to me at a time when nothing else could, saving my life and ushering me into a new era of artistic creation" and then the best song on every album is always called "the opossum song" and it goes "opossum opossum opossum in the front yard / opossum opossum opossum in the back yard / opossum! in! my! house! drinking blood!"

Someone on the tMG subreddit (credit to u/ACanOfVanillaCoke) posted this little survey and it's been really fun to read through the comments, so I'm stealing it and bringing it over here:
1. What was the first tMG song you ever heard/where did you hear it?
2. What's your personal all-time favorite tMG song?
3. What song is your current obsession?
Mine are Heel Turn 2 (on WTNV, though I don't actually remember this at all), Midland, and Only Takes A Few (live recording - I've been listening to it constantly since they played it this last tour).
Please feel free to put your answers in the tags!!
