#ljg covering a variety of mountain goats songs

[doghart]

i have an unfortunate habit of, i think, assuming that the mountain goats have a much further reach than they do. particularly w/ musicians. i keep finding new artists (particularly more underground indie/folk/punk artists) and being like. well surely they have a tweet/post/interview where they gush about how good the mountain goats are. surely. they must have a favorite mountain goats song that has, like with all mountain goats fans, ripped them clean open stomach to throat in one continued line. of course. it’s just a matter of when their cover of it comes out. and i have to simply remember that that is not universally true although to be fair the number of times it has happened isn’t exactly proving my theory wrong.
