The Mountain Goats - the sunset tree album cover | |||||||||||||||
The Sunset Tree is a 2005 album from John Darnielle's main project, The Mountain Goats. While We Shall All Be Healed focused on Darnielle's years as a teenager involved with other meth users, The Sunset Tree talks much about his childhood, and features domestic violence as a recurring theme. An alternate, limited edition vinyl, entitled Come, Come to the Sunset Tree was sold as a tour-only LP with 1000 copies. Darnielle has said the album name came from a hymn mentioned in a particularly brutal scene in Samuel Butler's The Way of All Flesh.
The Hold Steady's song "Girls Like Status" references "This Year": "It was song number three on John's last CD, gonna make it through this year, if it kills me, and it almost killed me".
