About this album

The Sunset Tree is a 2005 album from John Darnielle’s main project, The Mountain Goats. While We Shall All Be Healed focused on Darnielle’s years as a teenager involved with other meth users, The Sunset Tree talks much about his childhood, and features domestic violence as a recurring theme. Darnielle has said that the album name came from a hymn mentioned in a particularly brutal scene in Samuel Butler’s The Way of All Flesh.
