The grace of a slasher movie
I'm still mulling over exactly how I feel about Heretic Pride (the first Mountain Goats album I've heard since becoming a fan that finds me kind of nonplussed), although I'm pretty sure it'll wind up on my top 20 for the year. But I can honestly say that for once a review has actually clarified my view of the album somewhat; that the review, easily the best thing you will read anywhere about Heretic Pride, is by my friend the good and wise Mike R. Powell, is merely icing on the cake.
