News: Mountain Goats and Donkeys. Tour Dates and MP3s

Two Mountain Goats related things to talk about, one is that John Darnielle and company are set to release a limited edition 7 inch and only six hundred and sixty six will be made available which would be fine but I don't get to see The Goats till one of their last shows in Brooklyn so what am I going to do?
(Thanks for the tip Pitchfork)

Other news that the September 9th sees the sophmore album by San Diego band (and John Darnielle approved) band The Donkeys is going to be chocked full of indian summer anthems to help wind down the summer. Living on the Other Side will be released on Dead Oceans which is fast becoming one of our favorite labels.

Listen:
The Donkeys "Nice Train"
The Donkeys "Walk Through a Cloud"
