The Mountain Goats: "Damn These Vampires"
John Darnielle is one of the finest lyricists of our time. The fact that he's singing
a song with the reoccuring lyric "God damn these vampires," can only mean one of the best things ever. Seriously, the man who wrote "Dance Music" singing about blood sucking mythological beasts? Pure gold. "Damn These Vampires," the opening track from his forthcoming All Eternals Deck album, is a beautifully contemplative piece, with delicate dollops of piano, a rollicking drum shuffle, and some typically great Darnielle witticisms ("Sleep like dead men/ Wake up like dead men"). All Eternals Deck drops Mar. 29 on Merge. Check out "Damn These Vampires" below, and download the song here. [Stereogum]
