The Mountain Goats Australian Tour 2012 just got bigger! Following the awesome news that The Mountain Goats are on track to return to Oz to tour their new album All Eternals Deck we are happy to report that the band have already sold out the Corner Hotel show and announced a second Melbourne date.
The second date – scheduled for 9 May, the day before the now sold out Corner Hotel show – is being played at in an intimate setting at The Toff In Town.
All Eternals Deck is an eclectic mix of inspirations ranging from century old painting to 70s cult films, singer songwriter John Darnielle explaining that the tracks “cluster around themes of hidden things and the dread that hidden things inspire.”
Recorded across four different studios each with different a producer, All Eternals Deck demonstrates how different seasons, moods, producers and locations play outinto song and confirms that John Darnielle is one of the most innovative and creative songwriters of this generation.
