Tillman\u2019s bent critiques, bared humanity and gently warped classic songwriting are all here in equal measure and \u2013 at 75 minutes \u2013 there\u2019s a veritable fuck ton of it. The album navigates themes of progress, technology, fame, the environment, politics, aging, social media, human nature, human connection and his own role in it all with his usual candour, and in terms as timely as they are timeless.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1504\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/FatherJohnMisty_2017_promo_04_GuyLowndes_3840x5760_300-copy4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"441\" height=\"661\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/FatherJohnMisty_2017_promo_04_GuyLowndes_3840x5760_300-copy4.png 441w, https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/FatherJohnMisty_2017_promo_04_GuyLowndes_3840x5760_300-copy4-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/FatherJohnMisty_2017_promo_04_GuyLowndes_3840x5760_300-copy4-100x150.png 100w, https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/FatherJohnMisty_2017_promo_04_GuyLowndes_3840x5760_300-copy4-150x225.png 150w, https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/FatherJohnMisty_2017_promo_04_GuyLowndes_3840x5760_300-copy4-300x450.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 441px) 100vw, 441px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Tillman<em>\u00a0<\/em>wrote the majority of\u00a0<em>Pure Comedy<\/em>\u00a0throughout 2015 and recorded all the basic tracking and vocals live to tape (in no more than two takes each) at United Studios (fka the legendary Ocean Way Studios, favoured by Frank Sinatra and The Beach Boys) in Los Angeles March 2016.<\/p>\n<p><em>Pure Comedy\u00a0<\/em>was co-produced once again by Josh Tillman and long-time producer Jonathan Wilson; mixed by Tillman, Wilson and Trevor Spencer, and mastered by Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering Studios.

The species\u2019 only hope for survival, \ufb01nding itself on a cruel, unpredictable rock surrounded by other species who seem far more adept at this whole thing (and to whom they are delicious), is the reliance on other, slightly older, half-formed brains. This reliance takes on a few different names as their story unfolds, like \u201clove,\u201d \u201cculture,\u201d \u201cfamily,\u201d etc. Over time, and as their brains prove to be remarkably good at inventing meaning where there is none, the species becomes the purveyor of increasingly bizarre and sophisticated ironies. These ironies are designed to help cope with the species\u2019 loathsome vulnerability and to try and reconcile how disproportionate their imagination is to the monotony of their existence.<\/p>\n<p>Now all of a sudden they expect light in the dark, warmth in the cold, and to make something out of nothing. Cooperation among the species to achieve these goals eventually yields a worldview wherein some among the species believe that there are individuals for whom this type of work is maybe ill-suited. The contribution of the ill-suited is of a more abstract, inspirational nature. The ill-suited begin to make subtle distinctions among themselves that extend beyond \u201ceaten by a bear\/not eaten by a bear\u201d. These distinctions involve do-it-ness, cool-face-and-body-ness, craftiness, etc. \u2013 an arrangement emerges where these traits can be traded in for better-than-ness. This better-than-ness really starts to run rampant, and the species begins to wonder if there isn\u2019t a Sky-Man in the sky who is perhaps the source of all better-than-ness. It seems like a pretty good explanation for why the species is so important.<\/p>\n<p>Sky-Man pretty much runs the show for a really, really long time, and his inner-circle of better-thans gets increasingly smaller and smaller, even though by the end of his reign everyone in the species considers themselves one. Unfortunately there are some better-thans who get together and decide that one way of better-than-ness is better than other betters-thans\u2019 better-than-ness and teach their little half-formed-brain babies as much (most who interpret this distinction as \u201cme\u2019s\u201d vs. \u201cnot-me\u2019s\u201d). \u201cNot-me\u2019s\u201d eventually come to encapsulate everyone that is not a single \u201cme\u201d at any given time, and this paves the way for incredibly distasteful behavior until the species arrives at a place of such alienation and fear there is really nothing so horrible that one of them wouldn\u2019t do to the other. To deal with this less than ideal state of affairs, which seems suspiciously incompatible with how progressive and evolved they are by this point, they set about to entertain themselves into an oblivion with politics, sex, \ufb01nance, philosophy, and other games of war. This they do until they are so numb, and the idea of any \u201cnot-me\u201d so untenable, that they are blissfully incapable of noticing they\u2019re all dead. This happens more or less on an in\ufb01nite loop until the end of time.<\/p>\n<p>Something like that.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine if you will, as the album starts, that you\u2019re way out in space looking at the earth and, though it\u2019s impossible to \u201cfall\u201d through space, you start a free fall anyway in the direction of the bright blue marble. For the next 75 minutes you plummet toward the earth, losing more and more perspective on what an abstract and impermanent place our planet is, how predictably we step on the same rakes, slip on the same banana peels over and over again through the ages, quickly becoming more and more immersed in the very messy business of being a human \u2013 the dubious privilege of being here, the elusiveness of meaning, true love and its habitual absence, random euphoria and the inexplicable misery of others, truth and its more alluring counterfeits, the sophistication of answers that don\u2019t make any sense, the barbarism of our appetites, lucky breaks and injustice, faith and ignorance, crippling, mind-numbing boredom, and the terror of it all ending too soon. Before you know it, you\u2019ve delicately crash-landed and \ufb01nd yourself lying on your back looking up at the stars. If you\u2019re lucky, with someone you love; even if just for a day, a year, a lifetime. Though just an hour has passed you have no recollection of what the earth looked like from the far-\ufb02ung reaches of space, nor how simple it all seemed a matter of minutes ago.<\/p>\n<p>I know everyone doesn\u2019t feel the same about what\u2019s going on right now. What for some is clearly garden-variety violent white nationalism serving as a catch-all for any number of paranoia-induced anti-fantasies foisted upon the poor and uneducated precisely by the ideologues bent on manufacturing voters who can be manipulated into voting against their own interests by making good and sure they remain poor and uneducated before cravenly blaming their problems largely on people bearing distinctions like race, gender, and sexuality so people forget everything that\u2019s good about the American experiment, is to others an opportunity to wrench the country back from the in\ufb02uence of hypocritical corporate tyrants bent on enslaving our minds with spineless liberal rhetoric in order to justify wiping out the jobs of decent people so they can ful\ufb01ll their fey utopian dream of an impossible global community designed to pro\ufb01t only its architects (probably Banking Consortiums, pedophile rings, and de\ufb01nitely The Illuminati).<\/p>\n<p>This album does not espouse either of those views.<\/p>\n<p>Both of those views take for granted a certain degree of sophistication, or at least a knack for cooperation, that I\u2019m absolutely convinced humans do not possess; not to mention some kind of innate logic to the proceedings here on Earth \u2013 which make a much better case for being some kind of demented joke than anything else.<\/p>\n<p>The terrifying reality concerning the dilemma above is everything is chaos and no one is really in control of anyone or anything.<\/p>\n<p>But what about the well documented history of humans making life a living hell for other humans since time began?<\/p>\n<p>There is no intellectual, political, or spiritual explanation that will ever satisfy anyone for longer than a moment, least of all this, the only explanation with any dignity. The explanation that appeases both our instincts for compassion and liberation. The explanation that we can either accept and move forward together or keep screaming to our respective heavens, \u201cWhy, God, why?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Things are the way they are because this is how we, the human race, want them.<\/p>\n<p>This is how we want it.<\/p>\n<p>Hold the motherfucking phone. Josh Tillman, you have said and done some stupid fucking things since we\u2019ve known you, but this is too much.<\/p>\n<p>Now the liberals and the conservatives are both outraged because that is a sentiment that is so profoundly insensitive to the ways in which the other side is clearly wrong in objective ways regarding basic decency, but what\u2019s the alternative? We\u2019re either all complicit in this purest comedy, or the people who aren\u2019t to blame are at war with the people who are to blame until everyone is dead. Simple as that.<\/p>\n<p>Is progress possible? What does it look like? The conversion of everyone to our respective beliefs? Well, we\u2019ve seen how that typically goes. The destruction of everyone who fails to conform? That\u2019s not it. The erection of institutions with the power and infrastructure to enforce a rule of law with the good of as many as possible at heart? Not much evidence for that panning out.<\/p>\n<p>What I recommend is this: we return to the Vedic cycle and submit ourselves to the likelihood that many of us will end up getting eaten by bears. It\u2019s only natural. What if instead of imbuing our expectations for the quality of our lives to include perpetual happiness, dream ful\ufb01llment, excessive painlessness, existential certitude, material wealth, and all variety of romantic stimulation, we were just grateful for every day that didn\u2019t involve getting eaten by a bear? What if progress only meant literally progressing from one day to the next without getting violently dismembered by a 9-foot tall, 500-pound grizzly?<\/p>\n<p>The irony here of course is that many more humans than we\u2019d like to think, most of whom are not reading the interminable liner notes to a folk rock album, do live in daily, perpetual fear of getting killed by a mammal far more terrifying than a bear, and I think you know the one to which I refer. This form of mammal attack is made all the more nightmarish by virtue of the fact that the mammal in question kills purely ideologically. Bears kill because they\u2019re hungry; they\u2019re very reasonable in that way. So maybe we should submit ourselves to their authority. Bears we can trust.<\/p>\n<p>Bottom line is that as long as we expect to live in such a way \u2013 immune to the natural laws of this godless rock that govern everything else here \u2013 human existence will continue to be a cruel joke. I fear, however, that it is too late for us to go back into the natural order. We have no desire to return to our primal scene. We like the way things are. We\u2019ve got sandwiches when we\u2019re hungry! Airplanes for when we want to go somewhere! Social media when we want our voices to be heard by all God\u2019s creation! We know that these magical conveniences come at a staggering price, and that excess for the few is based on the scarcity of the many, but that\u2019s why we invented the business of globalization! We\u2019ve already built the wall! It\u2019s a great, great wall that goes up to the heavens and is as transparent as museum glass. It\u2019s a beautiful wall that winds surgically through nations, cities, neighborhoods, and sometimes even homes. It is a globe within a globe, and those who live within its interior are as clueless as to what\u2019s happening on the other side as we are to what\u2019s happening right now on the far side of Mars.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s only one creature that can penetrate that wall, friends, and it is bears. Bears can smash through that glass like a pitcher of sugar water through a brick wall. The equalizing revolution of bear justice is coming too. Sooner than you think. As it gets hotter and hotter, they\u2019re coming. They\u2019re coming into our neighborhoods, they\u2019re coming into our schools, into our churches, into our banks, into our places of business, into our governments, into our beds.<\/p>\n<p>The joke is that the best we can do is keep on keeping on, which we\u2019ve proven ourselves pathologically adept at. We\u2019re going to save the planet alright, and it will be a glorious sacri\ufb01ce just like the Sky-Man we invented showed us how.<\/p>\n<p>Bears, man.<\/p>\n<span class=\"synved-social-container synved-social-container-share\"><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F1502&amp;t=Father%20John%20Misty%20unleashes%20new%20video%20and%20film%20before%20the%20release%20of%20new%20album%2C%20%E2%80%98Pure%20Comedy%E2%80%99&amp;s=100&amp;p[url]=https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F1502&amp;p[images][0]=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.shindig-magazine.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2017%2F01%2FFatherJohnMisty_2017_promo_04_GuyLowndes_3840x5760_300-copy4.png&amp;p[title]=Father%20John%20Misty%20unleashes%20new%20video%20and%20film%20before%20the%20release%20of%20new%20album%2C%20%E2%80%98Pure%20Comedy%E2%80%99\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F1502&amp;text=New%20post%20on%20our%20site\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-mail nolightbox\" data-provider=\"mail\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share by email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Father%20John%20Misty%20unleashes%20new%20video%20and%20film%20before%20the%20release%20of%20new%20album%2C%20%E2%80%98Pure%20Comedy%E2%80%99&amp;body=New%20post%20on%20our%20site:%20https%3A%2F%2Fshindig-magazine.com%2Findex.php%3Frest_route%3D%252Fwp%252Fv2%252Fposts%252F1502\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mail\" title=\"Share by email\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/shindig-magazine.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/mail.png\" \/><\/a><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s great to have FATHER JOHN MISTY back.
