2017 release. Pure Comedy, Father John Misty's third album, is a complex, often-sardonic, and, equally often, touching meditation on the confounding folly of modern humanity. Father John Misty is the brainchild of singer-songwriter Josh Tillman. Tillman has released two widely acclaimed albums - Fear Fun (2012) and I Love You, Honeybear (2015) - and the recent "Real Love Baby" single as Father John Misty, and recently contributed to songs by Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Kid Cudi. While we could say a lot about Pure Comedy - including that it is a bold, important album in the tradition of American songwriting greats like Harry Nilsson, Randy Newman, and Leonard Cohen - we think it's best to let it's creator describe it himself. Take it away, Mr. Tillman: "Pure Comedy is the story of a species born with a half-formed brain. The species' only hope for survival, finding itself on a cruel, unpredictable rock surrounded by other species who seem far more adept at this whole thing (and to whom they are delicious), is the reliance on other, slightly older, half-formed brains. This reliance takes on a few different names as their story unfolds, like "love," "culture," "family," etc. Over time, and as their brains prove to be remarkably good at inventing meaning where there is none, the species becomes the purveyor of increasingly bizarre and sophisticated ironies. These ironies are designed to help cope with the species' loathsome vulnerability and to try and reconcile how disproportionate their imagination is to the monotony of their existence. Something like that". Pure Comedy was recorded in 2016 at the legendary United Studios (Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, Beck) in Hollywood, CA. It was produced by Father John Misty and Jonathan Wilson, with engineering by Misty's longtime sound-person Trevor Spencer and orchestral arrangements by renowned composer/double-bassist Gavin Bryars (known for extensive solo work, and work with Brian Eno, Tom Waits, Derek Bailey).

Great Sheets!
Size: Twin, Color: Oatmeal
Super soft, wash up beautifully, seem well made — very happy! It’s very hard to find 100% cotton t-shirt type sheets and these are really lovely.

Weirdly textured
Size: King, Color: Dark Gray
I have bought and loved jersey sheets in the past, that have all been as soft as a well worn cotton t-shirt. These arent soft. They have the stretch of jersey, but not the soft smooth texture that they should have. Even after washing a few times these are one of my least favorite sheets I've ever bought on Amazon.

Top sheet changes everythang
Color: Solid Off White(flat Sheet Only), Size: Twin
There are a lot of negative reviews due to the price for what is only a top sheet. It is a bit pricy, though I sleep in a twin so it wasn’t too bad. However I read reviews for cheaper top sheets and theres so many stories of them falling apart, pilling, or feeling terrible. Absolutely no pilling or falling apart after the first wash and dry. Stuck it right on my bed and its very cozy and fits perfectly. Not too hot and not too cold. For any first time bedsheet shoppers: i wasnt sure what type i’d want. Cotton? Microfiber? Sateen? I went with jersey because I think the one my mom uses was that and i loved it as a kid. This definitely feels like a thicker T shirt- not as plush soft or smooth as I wanted, but not rough by any means. Its not clingy either. I swapped from a microfiber (cheap set from walmart with cartoon characters on it) and the top sheet literally changed everything. I don’t toss and turn at night! I wake up and it takes seconds to make my bed- i’m not untying a huge knot. It adds such a tiny bit of weight thats so comfy and cozy and not hot. You can be certain you’re not taking a risk with this brand at the price. Very mych happy with my purchase and have been sleeping a lot better.

Not lightweight
Color: Charcoal Dark Grey(flat Sheet Only), Size: Twin
Bought for use as a summer blanket, the weight is heavier than expected and may prove too warm. Otherwise, seems to be a well-made product.
