'John Darnielle has spent 35 straight years prolifically honing his craft as a songwriter, grafting away and retaining day jobs well into his 30’s while carving out a touring and recording career that eventually took off enough in popularity to see him become a full-time musician and to sell out tours across the world. Throughout this entire stretch, he has remained as singular and idiosyncratic as ever, writing hyper-literate tales of dysfunctional relationships, alcoholics, professional wrestlers, supernatural beings and whatever else strikes his interest and helps him convey his neurotic but ultimately life-affirming worldview. As bizarre and humorous as many of his songs are, his songwriting still manages to feel confessional and raw, inhabiting characters who can display universal experiences and detail painful ordeals from his past.' https://thelivewire.com.au/2026/04/16/live-the-mountain-goats-at-the-princess-theatre/ #mountaingoats #music

'John announces that the set is coming to an end and after reminiscing about previous Brisbane trips and great times at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, its time for ‘This Year’, for which the term “fan favourite” would be a huge understatement. The song is an incredible defiant ode to perseverance and John allows himself to step away from the mic at different times because the audience is drowning out his vocals through how passionately everyone is belting out the chorus “I will get through this year if it kills me”. As cliched as it may be to say, in times as precarious and stressful as we’re living through now, this moment takes on extra significance and acts as a rare hopeful rallying cry.' https://thelivewire.com.au/2026/04/16/live-the-mountain-goats-at-the-princess-theatre/ #mountaingoats #music #Brisbane
