Father John Misty - Fear Fun

Father John Misty — Fear Fun

First studio album by musician Josh Tillman under his Father John Misty monker, reissued

Limited time album download included

Fear Fun is the first studio album released by American folk musician Josh Tillman under his pseudonym Father John Misty. It was released on April 30, 2012, in the U.K. and Europe on Bella Union, and in the rest of the world on May 1, 2012, on the Sub Pop label.

Equal parts playful, dark, mysterious, literary, psychedelic, introspective, and hedonistic, Fear Fun has a little something for anyone who might consider themselves a modern layabout libertine. Turn up the volume and pass the ayahuasca.

A very nice vinyl issue posted on 07/24/2013 5 Stars Reviewer: Dual This is one of my favorite releases of the last year or so, and the vinyl edition was well worth the purchase. The pressing is dead-quiet, audio quality very high. The packaging is, shall we say, deluxe, with a heavy gatefold sleeve and two foldout poster inserts (mostly thousands of words presumably from Joshua Tillman hisself). Mastered at Sterling, credited to Greg Calbi, [although it appears someone else ("RJ") cut the lacquers]. And mp3 downloads to boot! Both as a piece of music and as a vinyl release this LP is well worth owning.
