When discussing ‘Father John Misty’, Tillman paraphrases Philip Roth: ’It’s all of me and
none of me, if you can’t see that, you won’t get it’. What I call it is totally arbitrary, but I
like the name. You’ve got to have a name. I never got to choose mine."
none of me, if you can’t see that, you won’t get it’. What I call it is totally arbitrary, but I
like the name. You’ve got to have a name. I never got to choose mine."
He goes on, “‘People who make records are afforded this assumption by the culture that
their music is coming from an exclusively personal place, but more often than not what
you hear are actually the affectations of an ’alter-ego’ or a cartoon of an emotionally
heightened persona,” says Josh Tillman, who has been recording/releasing solo albums
since 2003 and who recently left Seattle’s Fleet Foxes after playing drums from 2008-2011.
“That kind of emotional quotient isn’t sustainable if your concern is portraying a human-
being made up of more than just chest-beating pathos. I see a lot of rampant, sexless,
male-fantasy everywhere in the music around me. I didn’t want any alter-egos, any
vagaries, fantasy, escapism, any over-wrought sentimentality. I like humor and sex and
mischief. So when you think about it, it’s kind of mischievous to write about yourself in a
plain-spoken, kind of explicitly obvious way and call it something like ‘Misty’. I mean, I
may as well have called it ‘Steve’”.

erykah badu & the flaming lips
In April, the Flaming Lips released a Record Store Day collaborative double vinyl called The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends. In "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," Wayne Coyne teams with Erykah Badu for a post-rock trip with slow-motion, glitter, milk, a blood-like liquid, and Badu's sister Nayrok showcasing her body in all sorts of unusual ways.
"Wayne is the Willy Wonka of music," said Badu in April on working with Coyne on the cover of a Ewan MacColl song made famous by Roberta Flack. "I didn't know what was going to happen." After multiple interruptions from Coyne, Badu finally nailed her vocals to satisfaction. "By the 29th time, EUREKA! I understood exactly what I wanted," she said.
