The Mountain Goats - Sax Rohmer #1
Initially just John Darnielle, who would appear on stage alone and say "Hi, we're The Mountain Goats", this is probably my all time favourite band. The guitar is often simple but the lyrics are arguably some of the best of any current-generation songwriter. Originally, Darnielle released lo-fi albums of his acoustic songs, recorded on a Panasonic boom box. Later, as a fully-formed band, the music took a more polished feel, but never wavers from its original lyrical brilliance.
