Mountain Goats - Sax Rohmer #1

The Mountain Goats were on the Colbert Report?

well said

i love the song and the vid but it makes me dizzy

The singer reminds me of a more aggressive Colin Meloy (singer of The Decemberists, for those who don't know).

they did a nice job on the colbert report.

do you know where i can find video?

I think you can find the whole episode on colbert's website.

oh that's right, thanks

I used to like Jonathan Coulton but now something about his music just pisses me off.

Maybe it's because his music is too clean. I have to be in a very specific mood to tolerate Coulton. But at least some small ups belong to him for turning me onto Cohen with his cover of Famous Blue Raincoat.

Either way I totally agree with you that Darnielle beats Coulton as a songwriter.

I might even say hands down but that could be my totally inexplicable and unfair hatred of Coulton seeping through.
