Mountain Goats, Manischevitz, Kimya Dawson March 3, 2004

John Darnielle tours in support of We Shall All Be Healed, everybody's favorite album of 2004 that's all about tweakers. "What you get after all this is thirteen new songs celebrating such small victories as real squalor has to afford, and championing either the merits of true friendship or of parasitism, depending on who you talk to about it. Anger, meet regret! It's nice to know you."

Manishevitz make poppy post-punk straight out of the '70s. Kimya Dawson of Moldy Peaches fame starts it off. $12.
