Interview with John Darnielle - "Spider-Man, Slashers and Songs"

John Darnielle, for those who are not in the know, is the front man, musician and head writer for the awesome band The Mountain Goats as well as a poet, an author - most notably of two novels Wolf in White Van and Universal Harvester"- and podcast co-host for I Only Listen To The Mountain Goats.

He also happens to love movies, specifically slasher horror films, and they have influenced or inspired some of his writing. So, after hearing many interviews with him about music and literature, I thought the world deserved John Darnielle's take on films and his fandom for them.

We talk Spider-Man, Hellraiser, Death Wish, Charles Bronson, Universal Harvester, writing, books, VHS, authenticity, music and so much more. It's a fascinating, one of a kind chat with a unique person - take a listen and enjoy!!
