The Mountain Goats<\/strong> have climbed to even higher heights on their new album, Transcendental Youth<\/strong>.\u00a0 While John Darnielle’s<\/strong> songs on the album brim with his usual brilliance, new ranges are explored and new sounds added to elevate and illumine the songs.\u00a0 With its superb songwriting and embellished sounds\/instrumentation, last year’s All Eternals Deck<\/strong> was one of the Best Albums of 2011<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 But Transcendental Youth<\/strong> adds Matthew White’s<\/strong><\/a> transcendent horns to the mix for even more emotional hue and heft (just listen to tracks White Cedar, In Memory of Satan<\/strong><\/em> or Transcendental Youth<\/strong><\/em> for a feel). (White has ventured out solo after Fight the Big Bull<\/a><\/strong>, and will be the opener on\u00a0The Mountain<\/strong> Goats<\/strong>‘ <\/strong>tour this fall.)\u00a0 Transcendental Youth<\/strong> will be released next Tuesday (10\/2)<\/strong> on Merge Records<\/strong>.\u00a0 Until then, you can stream it at Rolling Stone<\/a><\/strong>. The band’s tour dates are below.<\/p>\n
