• Father John Misty Ranks Bizarre Favorite Albums of 2015 & Discusses The Farce of Indie Rock

    Father John Misty is sort of known for saying some inflammatory things. From his covers of Ryan Adams covering Taylor Swift, to his lying about Lou Reed coming to him in a fever dream, you never know what he will do next.

    These days, it seems as if every big album has to be streamed online for free before its official release date, but singer-songwriter -- and former Fleet Foxes drummer -- Josh Tillman, better known as Father John Misty, has found a sly way to get around that. According to "Stereogum," Tillman has made his upcoming studio album "I Love You, Honeybear" available for streaming on his website through a new streaming service called SAP, but instead of uploading the actual studio recordings, Tillman has uploaded instrumental MIDI versions of the entire album, and it sounds hilariously awful.
