PHIL ELVERUM
Logo

Mount Eerie is the project of Washington-based indie rock legend, Phil Elverum. This might take the cake as the PI guest that's most important to me (Tyler) and the PI staff. His music as The Microphones and Mount Eerie has consistently soundtracked my life's key moments, whether I'm high or low, and made me fall in love with the warm imperfections of lofi rock at an early age. Earlier this month he dropped a new Mount Eerie record titled Night Palace, which is top-notch and a highlight release of the year. He’s put out some videos to accompany the album, and you can check those out on his YouTube channel. This month, he plays in New York City and Los Angeles, and this spring he will go on a North American tour (ticket info here.) Lucky for us, Phil is here to tell us what he’s been into.

At a show recently someone gave me the gift of a little pile of books and zines from their anarchist-oriented distro. How nice! One of the zines is this short essay talking about the role of passively accepting the omnipresence of technology and specifically smartphones in our lives, especially within radical progressive movements. I’m not an active crime-doer or society dismantler at the moment, but still there are some very enlightening perspectives in here about this big problem that we already all know about but can’t seem to do anything about.
