Fear Fun CASSETTE

Fear Fun is where Josh Tillman shed his old J. Tillman solo name, walked out of Fleet Foxes, and landed on Father John Misty instead, a persona built with producer Jonathan Wilson for Sub Pop. It swerves hard into psychedelic, dryly funny indie folk, a sharp break from the somber records Tillman had been making up to that point. Critics jumped on it fast, and NME singled out "Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings" as a contender for song of the year, the moment his new songwriting voice actually landed.
