The Mountain Goats - The Best Ever Death Metal Band In Denton - 2/25/2009 - Swedish American Hall

[@aedanhenry]

this particular performance of this song is everything that i love about the mountain goats

[@havilinhargraves9122]

Sometimes, I just need to hear this. And remind myself that there is hope in this world, and there’s a place for me.

[@adamkrasnoff2557]

This is incredibly powerful.

[@FoxtaleHi]

That speech hit hard. ❤

[@markkelly2073]

My favorite fact about this song is that the iconic "Hail satan" at the end of the song wasn't a written lyric, but just something darnielle yelled out on impulse.

[@helloRockwood]

Cool story bro

[@thelegendofhuman]

When did he say this?

[@BLACKSKYCROW]

bro I watched this video for like an hour straight now, possibly more.

[@backwiththecoyotes]

I don't think anything can ever hit me as hard as the monologue at the beginning of this. John Darnielle continues to be wise in the face of things he cannot understand, and as a trans person who has been sent to places, I cannot thank him enough for doing so.

[@AM-ow3gn]

Same. As another trans person struggling to shout loudly enough to condemn the rapidly increasing laws being written against us... same.

[@vanancio]

I wish the best for both of you,and the rest of the community

[@Carollnn]

His passion is just overflowing! I love it!

[@krophiquon]

"When you punish a person for dreaming his dream, don't expect him to thank or forgive you" There are a lot of "Christians" that are going to be real lonely in their old age after their children have abandoned them.

[@whoopshey826]

The story behind him writing this is amazing

[@autumnavalanche1097]

what is the story? :o

[@HeyJudie]

What is the story? I'm pretty sure I know who he wrote this about but I dunno the story. I guess I could ask the other guy but he's pretty private.

Man Dana carvey is so cool

[@helloRockwood]

Don't insult Dana like that. He's a pussy but not this big of a pussy.

[@ichewtoast111]

A true poet

[@traviscarroll5762]

[@felix56p]

[@ytvscmr]

Hail Satan! : D

[@MD-mh7bp]

[@helloRockwood]

This band would be so much more enjoyable if John wasnt such an unlikeable victim.

[@loringuysingersongwriterfo1917]

[@owensmith3940]

You are clearly missing the point. sorry bro. Unless this is a joke. In that case, please disregard :)
