The Mountain Goats – “Night Light” (Demo)

The Mountain Goats‘ fourteenth album, Transcendental Youth, is out today. To celebrate its release, Merge released an early demo of “Night Light,” from the new album.

The demo is just frontman John Darnielle on guitar and vocals, with a bit of added piano, but the most stripped-down Mountain Goats tracks always capture the brilliance of his writing.

Check out the demo for “Night Light” below, which is also available for free download from Merge’s SoundCloud. Transcendental Youth is out today.
