A few months ago, the Mountain Goats’ masterpiece The Sunset Tree celebrated its 20th anniversary. For other bands, an occasion like that might be an opportunity to slow down, or maybe to do one of those album-playthrough tours for more money. That is not the Mountain Goats way. The band did release a remastered anniversary edition of the album, but they didn’t even include bonus tracks. This band never sits still for long, and they’ve always got another record in the works. This fall, they’ll follow up 2023’s Jenny From Thebes with a new LP called Through This Fire Across From Peter Balkan. This one happens to feature a couple of big-name collaborators.
