I never saw anyone post about this, probably because fart and I are the only people that care, but Phil Elverum has graciously made the Seven New Songs of Mt. Eerie EP here. The converted understand that Phil is the best thing to happen to music since black people were invented. I highly suggest checking out this EP in preparation of Mt. Eerie's many upcoming releases:

Love Phil because he loves you.

No Flashlight or whatever was alright. Best thing with the Mt. Eerie name attached was the Microphones' Mt Eerie album.

I think he's doing something slightly different with No Flashlight. It doesn't try to sound like it's a giant epic like The Glow, Pt 2 and Mt. Eerie were. I was thrown off by it at first, but I've been listening to it nonstop the past week.

The Seven New Songs of Mt. Eerie I'm not huge on, but it's evident that it was recorded quickly. Wooly Mammoth's Absence and Do Not Be Afraid are pretty awesome. Actually, the only songs I actively skip are the last 2.

PS. You are unbanned! Yay!

i'm ordering a copy of the nika box tonight-ish. imma grab some singers asap

When you order, don't forget:

special offer: for people who also want a copy of “ELV001”- “Mt. Eerie Dances With Wolves…” 2 song 12”:
just say “I also want the Dances With Wolves record” and add 11$ to your total.
 
Listened to 'No Flashlight' and just can't get into it. The whole Microphones/Mt. Eerie thing doesn't do it for me. Kinda makes me feel bad, cuz my friend/roommate thinks Phil is the best thing in the world.
