with 2 "nick rocks" appearances and a shout-out on "clarissa explains it all", it does seem the most appropriate station for them. here's what they look like uncrusted.

TMBG BEST SONG VII ROUND 2 PART 2:

ALBUM: Factory Showroom (1996)

@cannibalcaprine

Lyrics I thought you might enjoy

ROUND 1: ISTANBUL (constantinople) VS CONSTANTINOPLE (istanbul)

the difference between the mountain goats and they might be giants is that you'll hear a tmg song that sounds like absolute nonsense and look up the lyrics and the annotations are like "oh actually this is a reference to the canterbury tales and also a metal band that existed for one month in 1996 and played three shows ever and all existing tapes of their debut album were melted down into glue 20 years ago" vs you'll hear a tmbg song that sounds like absolute nonsense and look up the lyrics and the annotations quote an interview with the johns where they're like "if you even think about interpreting this song we'll come to your house and kill you"

a little fact from the music video commentaries that makes me laugh is during "don't let's start" linnell and flansburgh talk about its similarities to "puppet head", and how while shooting it, director adam bernstein was apparently kinda muttering, "I think we did this video already..."

if you gave tmbg songs to a child they would have an existential crisis but not for the ones you expect
