Phil Eleverum.. your favorite indie artists favorite indie artist?
Headless Horseman was released in 2001 by The Microphones, in the album titled âThe Glow, Pt. 2â. The Microphones was a project created by Phil Elverum, who is now currently releasing as Mount Eerie.
I discovered The Microphones a few years back, and I was originally drawn to them because when I heard âThe Moonâ It reminded me of Neutral Milk Hotel, but better?
The Glow, Pt. 2 was the first album of Philâs I listened to. Headless Horseman has always been a favorite of mine. Itâs always so fascinating when I hear a song thatâs so simple, just two chords and a little riff, and then a voice, but itâs so impactful and beautiful and unique.
The vocals are amazing. Itâs gentle and soft spoken, which perfectly compliments the guitar. idk man i fuckin love this guys voice.
A notable thing about Phil is his ability to paint a scene with his music. His songs always sound so nature-y, and even has some ambient-like qualities as well. Also heâs good at somgwriting lemme talk abt that..
The lyrics depict a shitty breakup almost perfectly. Breaking up with somebody you truly love just does feel like losing half your life. All their friends you befriended, gone. All the stuff they gave you, gone.
âyou turned me into a stray dog,
from a mighty human manâ
All left to do now is just be an emotional wreck. You lost your home and now you just sit and stew and think about how badly you wish you could be home again, in that warm embrace you yearn for every night.
âI miss my closest friendâ
Realest lyric ever. The most beautiful thing about a relationship full of love is that your partner WILL be your best friend. And you know thatâs what also suck a lot about breakups. Not only do you miss your partner, you just miss your best friend.
You MUST listen to The Microphones if you like anything folk, noise rock, ambient, and just good songwriting/storytelling and producing/mixing.
FIVE BIG BOOMS

Adrienne Lenker is one of the most talented artists weâll see in our lifetime. Sadness As A Gift will always have a special place in my heart.
The first time I heard this song was with my beautiful girlfriend. We had just gotten back together and we were going to a show. We accidentally drove to the venue too early (in wherever the fuck maryland) and so we just sat in the parking lot and caught up on music we both found the 9 months we were apart. She showed me this song and i like how much it reminded me of her and i. I mean, I leaned on the windowsill hoping sheâd write me someday.
One thing I like about this song a lot is the little country aspects, just using a lot of cowboy chords and that violin that just makes u feel like ur at the petting zoo at a county fair on a hot sweaty summer day and it smells like manure. but in a good way.
The harmonies are also a nice touch, theyâre a bit quiet; but thatâs so okay because if adrienne lenkerâs voice was any less prevalent the song would not be as good.
So yeah definitely listen to this song. Learn it to!! sing it with your partner!! itâs fun and very easy to play on guitar if youâre still afraid of barre chords. 5 big booms.
