The Mountain Goats, the goofy and/or poignant indie project from John Darnielle, are bringing the critically-acclaimed songs from last year’s All Eternals Deck album to Australia.

Darnielle, Peter Hughes and Jon Wurster are currently touring the US, where they said they’ll be airing new material so, if they haven’t assembled the new album by May, Australian fans might also catch unheard tunes.

Tickets for the tour went on sale today through Moshtix for the Perth, Melbourne, Katoomba, Brisbane and Sydney shows, and OzTix for Byron Bay.
