The Mountain Goats have announced their second album of 2020.
After John Darnielle fired up the boombox for ‘Songs For Pierre Chuvin’ earlier this year the group will return with a studio collection, ‘Getting Into Knives’ on October 23 through Merge Records.

and I have to tell you in case anybody misses it: the organ on the new song? That swelling, throbbing, miraculous Hammond B3? that's CHARLES HODGES. THE GUY WHO WROTE THE "LET'S STAY TOGETHER" ORGAN LINE. "TAKE ME TO THE RIVER." "LOVE AND HAPPINESS." ~THAT~ GUY pic.twitter.com/UDK8fcIRHO
