“Thanks god for mental illness”… This unofficial music video illustrates Mount Eerie‘s music so well: slow motion violence and intensity. Phil Elverum, Mount Eerie’s frontman and principal member (and formerly known as The Microphones) had a great album, last year’s “Wind’s poem”, full of drone guitars and weird melancholy.

As a solo act, Mount Eerie is less violent but probably even more intense. Check out this live solo performance shot in Chicago, 6 years ago. “It’s oh so quiet”.

“I love the nostalgia of the archaic and I hope that not everything which has outlived its use goes to waste”, says  on her website. I love to think about the data contained on the media, and the idea that a copy of the the music (or movie) is also contained in your own head…”, she says.
