Release Notes:

Nothing changes in Daniel Johnston's music. Long
aware of his own brilliance, he has ploughed his
idiosyncratic furrow for nearly two decades now,
never failing to create songs of devastating honesty
and startling beauty. Like its predecessors, his
ninth album is at once strident and frail. It is
haunted by the Beatles, littered with quirky
references to pop culture and details his precarious
mental state and longing for love with such acuity
it's hard not to flinch. This isn't to say that
every track is perfect: Rock This Town and Rock
Around the Christmas Tree are curiously misjudged,
the first a rollicking metal parody that sits ill
with Johnston's quivering voice, the latter an
adaptation of a soft-rock tune that is plain daft.
But then you hit the piercingly autobiographical
Lonely Song, with the line, "If you listen really
hard you can hear the desperation of a sad and
broken heart - my heart" and - for all the guilty
feelings of voyeurism it provokes - you just think:
wonderful. It helps that Brian Beattie's production
is so eccentric: percussion clatters, guitars skip,
pianos wallow and every so often a cello melody
swoops in and lifts the lot to the sky. The effect
is magical.
