When we asked listeners about their favorite songs to listen to while battling depression, The Mountain Goats\\u2019 music kept coming up. We caught up with the band\\u2019s founder, singer, and songwriter, John Darnielle, to learn about what goes into his process. We also find out about the music he listens to and the other ways he copes with the depression that has dogged him for many years. Special bonus: a brand new John Darnielle poem.
