Maybe it will get the VMP treatment??!? Essentials I'd imagine?
Oh yeah. There are so many cover art options for the clay man/zombie/crash test dummy guy. Foil? Hologram? Embossed? Give him blue eyes?

Yep, but that one hasn't been re-issued since 2010. This is just for his other work that has never been released/reissued.Isn't UFO rumored to be the VMP ROTM for Essentials this month?
Does that further confirm the rumor??Yep, but that one hasn't been re-issued since 2010. This is just for his other work that has never been released/reissued.

You listen to the single?
My thoughts exactly. The timing is too perfect.Does that further confirm the rumor??
Right--I mean time it so that both sets come out at once since LITA and VMP work together.Yep, but that one hasn't been re-issued since 2010. This is just for his other work that has never been released/reissued.
Has to be it. And his story is shrouded in so much mystery, VMP would be all over it in looking to tell it (or build upon what LITA has already told).Right--I mean time it so that both sets come out at once since LITA and VMP work together.
When I get high I listen to The Cure, so...free shipping in the US made this an easy decision.View attachment 14187

John Darnielle on these songs:
As is generally known, whenever I get some time to myself I tend to start thinking about Ozzy Osbourne. A few years ago I wrote about 3/4 of an album’s worth of songs about Black Sabbath and/or Ozzy’s solo career, some of which were on the Marsh Witch Visions EP. When I sent Owen Pallett a link to the songs I was working on for In League with Dragons, he noticed a bunch of other songs in the folder—stuff I’d meant to say “these were for something else” about, but didn’t. Those songs were probably going to hang out in that folder for a good long while or maybe never see daylight at all. I am a shark, I seek the blood-cloud a little further ahead.
But Owen announced, in our second conversation about Dragons, that “Passaic” was the single. I was pretty surprised by this—to me it felt like a 2/3 Robert Forster + 1/3 Syd Barrett’s Opel sessions cocktail, music dear to my heart but not renowned for its chartbusting ways. Owen, however, heard the song more in the vein of “Talk About the Passion”-era R.E.M., stuff I only know in passing. Still, I was committed to having him call the shots on the arrangements, and curious about what he meant.
Speaking of singles, Peter Hughes, on hearing “Get High and Listen to the Cure”—written for Goths, attempted in the studio sessions in versions that lacked the snap of this demo—felt certain this was the song that would make us a household name. I’m fond of the song, though I don’t share his conviction that it’s the Mountain Goats song the whole world has been waiting to hear. Should this release prove Peter right, I will be quite content to concede the point.
