Last week, John Darnielle and Peter Hughes, aka the Mountain Goats, made their tour-only Satanic Messiah EP available to the general public. According to Darnielle on the band’s site:

The songs will also be available as a limited edition double-7″ in a gatefold hi-gloss sleeve, etc., but when I say “limited,” I mean it, so please don’t hold out for the vinyl; only 665 people will get a copy. (I will be the 666th.) An option to pay me for my work is available at the linked site, but is by no means a requirement prior to download, as that would be weasel business.

Download the four-song release at SatanicMessiah.com in either MP3 or FLAC formats, and don’t hesitate to throw something into the tip jar.
