with Hungry Cloud DarkeningMotorbikesThe Dyeing MerchantsMount EerieMount Eerie represents the latest evolution of Phil Elverums musical vision. Formerly known as The Microphones, Phil changed his projects name to Mount Eerie while maintaining his subtle, lo-fi, and lyrically dense fuzz-folk aesthetic. Elverum explained this change in an 2003 interview with Discorder, asserting that Mount Eerie is a new project. The Microphones was completed, or at least at a good stopping point. I did it because I am ready for new things. I am new. As Mount Eerie, Phil is generally sans synthesizers, drums, and the accenting voices of Mirah, The Blow, and fellow K-Records/Anacortes, Washington friends. Mount Eeries album Seven New Songs of Mount Eerie was also the first recording released on Phils new label, P.W.Elverum & Sun. All songs from that recording are available for free download in the Internet Archive.
