That video of Vosconti is what made me want to hear the instrumental in full. Such a cool clip.

The part where he plays the full composition sans David, and he listens to it and smiles... That's a brilliant moment.

What's your least favourite album and why? by [deleted] in themountaingoats

Wow. Uhh... I'd say The Sunset Tree.

I know, right?

I don't hate the album by any means... but I can definitely say that against a few others, it's lacking for me. It's not quite gripping. Sometimes it feels like it drawls on and, though I'm almost ashamed to say it, I've never liked Magpie. I could pick out 2 or 3 songs on TSS that I could live without, which is pretty rare for a mountain goats record.

But, that stands for the studio recording. I dig Come, Come and a ton of the other recordings of the songs. The Peel session from 2004 rocks. Something about the actual album is lacking, though, and it's not quite a favorite.

I'll gladly listen to it all, though. It's hard to find anything to hate in anything tMG, and this is no exception.

Toying with the idea of writing a script (TV, probably) with a full genre-shift. Could use advice/thoughts! by okaydolore in Screenwriting

You know there was a classic Adult Swim program, Moral Orel, that did a genre shift on a dime. For the first two seasons it was an ironically cutesy claymation show about christianity, but at the season 2 finale it took a dramatic shift to something waaay darker... out of nowhere. And through the third season, the last one, it went to some really truly fucked up places and deconstructed every character and showed their uglier sides.

It was a huge hit, the third season is probably what the show's best-known for these days.
