Title: Father John Misty - Pure Comedy
Post by: K-man on Sunday, March 19, 2017, 06:10:45 PM
I checked this guy out last night after Jason Isbell (another artist I like) talked him up on Twitter.  I jumped down the rabbit hole, and holy shit.  It's been a while since I've been floored by music, but this sure did it.

Damn. That's a hell of a song for sure.

I was very confused as to why LI Joe's dad was clipped into the video for a second, though.

Have listened to this a couple times since. Grows weightier on subsequent listens.

"Ballad of the Dying Man" is also a pretty scathing indictment.

Wow.  I thought I was getting cynical.
