signals
The Number None album is done. We need to put a finishing touch on the packaging and then we'll gift some copies to people. You may already be on the list. More on that later. For now, here's this, from the liner notes to the Mountain Goats' newest album All Hail West Texas:
"Some of us ... imagine the hand of a person behind all this: an ornery little fellow who will have no sound without a second sound to obscure and pollute it, who is deeply mistrusting of singers in general, and who believes that whatever 'signal-to-noise ratio' might mean, it can't be any good unless more value is placed on the latter of the two hyphenated terms. Of course the original signal is never actually anywhere near any recordings anywhere, but you all already knew that. You have been sure of it for quite some time now. You see the proof everywhere. It is the reason you started reading these lines in the first place."
