MOUNT EERIE let's get out of the romance (black)

.
Phil Elverum, who used to play under the MICROPHONES moniker.

a bodhisattva or a megalomaniac sarcastic hippie? it's up to you.

the song also appears on the No Flashlight lp (the moan it's called there) - a revelation, to me.
but in a different version, this one being rawer, less controlled.

be in the dark without light. be in a relation to someone without any certitudes.


here's the 'real' Let's Get Out-song:




the black ink on the cover is as dark as can be. coal-black.
oh, and the vinyl is white. all the first Mount Eerie records had to be on white vinyl.

does it matter?
it does.


listen.
