The Mountain Goats é o projeto musical do canto/compositor e guitarrista John Darnielle. A revista The New Yorker referiu a ele como "Melhor compositor não-hip-hop da América". No artigo de junho de 2006, revista Paste nominou Darnielle um dos "100 melhores compositores ao vivo". As letras de Darnielle são literais e repletas com imaginário com referências da literatura clássica, religião e mitologia, cultura pop, arte, e história. Outros possuem vagas referências ao seu padrasto
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
