voxpop

They sound not tooo bad at alll (sory for the cynical bit) - thinking they may be somehting to look forward to playing over the summer

Bungalow Bill

Their singer sounds exactly like Glen Hansard from the frames sometimes I think. They are ok, nothing special.

technobob

dont know what to make of them yet

Well certainly their basist chick thing is rather, well, unappealing!..but who ever needed to be good looking to make good music?

Have quite a few of their tracks on the pc, sounding decent enough now. Somehow I'm not sure they're going to break it big though, but hey, I have been wrong before!

Mountain Goats are fantastic, one of my favourite bands
Saw them play here in 1996 (Slatterys) and 2002 (Cobblestone)

The three albums they have done for 4AD are a lot more polished than their previous body of work.
Zopilote Machine or Nothing For Juice are probably my favourite albums of theirs

The three comps Ghana, Bitter Melon Farm, Protein Source... are well worth getting

They arent the prettiest of bands, but their album art is pretty cool, bit like southpark characters, v cute. And the album is pretty good, nice and happy, they sound like they're skinnier...meh all the more to love
