John Darnielle has recorded so much under his Mountain Goats moniker that it's getting hard to track the shades of heartbreak. The North Carolina-based songwriter has recorded more than ten albums in about as many years, from ultra-lo-fi home recordings to lovely, confessional folk rock. His last record, Get Lonely, was by far his starkest, saddest collection, with songs ambling through barely catchy verses and perfunctory choruses. His newest release, Heretic Pride, marks the end of Darnielle's maudlin period, signaling a return to his trademark: frantic, sing-along story songs.
