The new song is excellent. Keenly anticipating the new record slated for November 2024.

I normally hate this dude but that time makes fools song is really good

What a great name for a Best Of - hard to believe it hasn't been used before.

Strange Encounter is a pretty disappointing omission from the tracklist though

I have no idea how he chose his "hits", other than most of them were singles? This group of songs is a pretty solid sampler of his work.

[Mother]

As a Lurker, I am grateful for the intro to this guy's music

[zeb]

[Strat]

His new song fucking rules.

[zeb]

Definitely one of the best tunes of 24.

Tillman has been dropping plenty of teasers for the new record, word is that the lead single will be out in about two weeks.

Tillman posted a couple songs on SoundCloud for mailing list subscribers: Mahashmashana/Screamland & She Cleans Up

There are also some nice live versions of other tracks floating around here and there.

Mahasmasana -- great cremation ground, all things going thither.

OK, so I listened to the leak and the record is beautiful. AOTY contender for sure.

[zeb]

But you eat a peach
Or you skin your knee
And time can’t touch me

Only two more days away.

[zeb]

This is a wonderful record. AOTY contender.

[Farmer John]

I'm not too familiar with the work of Mr. Misty, but "I Guess Time Just Makes Fools of Us All" is a fantastic song.
