The Mountain Goats have shot to prominence in Australia over the last few years with sell out tours and widespread press and radio play.

CD Reviews

One of my favorites in a long discography

Christopher J. Thompson | Boston, MA USA | 05/20/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Every song on this is beautiful. The opener and his cover of "Sometimes i Still Feel The Bruise" are some of my absolute favorites in this artists long history. For me, this EP is The Mountain Goats at the top of their game."

A Solid Music Effort

William Hoffknecht | Fernley, NV | 05/29/2008

(4 out of 5 stars)

"So when The Mountain Goats went on tour through Australia during the "Get Lonely" tour, they released this 5 track e.p. and it is good.

There is a cover of "Sometimes I Still Feel The Bruise" by Trembling Blue Stars that is quite wonderful as well as the song "Alibi", which is lyrically awesome.

Overall, good tunes and none of these tracks are available on any other tMG release, so check it out.

I am not sure if it is quite worth the 18 bucks or whatever Amazon wants for it. You can buy it for much cheaper if you DL it from iTunes. I would say LD it from Amazon, but for some reason they do not seem to have it, at least not at this time."
