Our Take

Dark, brooding, and irresistibly catchy, the latest offering from Mountain Goats is a thrilling ride through the depths of the human experience. From the haunting melodies of "Corsican Mastiff Stride" to the toe-tapping rhythms of "Tidal Wave," this album is a masterclass in storytelling through song.

Lead singer John Darnielle's distinctive vocals soar above the intricate instrumentation, painting vivid pictures of love, loss, and everything in between. The band's signature blend of folk and indie rock is on full display here, with each track taking the listener on a journey through the darkest corners of the mind.

Standout tracks like "The Destruction of the Kola Superdeep Borehole Tower" showcase Mountain Goats' ability to weave complex narratives into their music, while "Piedmont Delta Blues" offers a more stripped-back, introspective look at the human condition.

Overall, Dark In Here is a triumph for Mountain Goats, showcasing their evolution as a band and solidifying their status as indie rock icons. With its mesmerising melodies and thought-provoking lyrics, this album is a must-listen for fans of the genre and newcomers alike. So grab your headphones, dim the lights, and prepare to be transported to a world where darkness reigns supreme. Trust us, you won't want to leave.
