Tapir! – The Pilgrim, Their God and The King Of My Decrepit Mountain

The Pilgrim, Their God and The King Of My Decrepit Mountain is the debut album by British indie folk band Tapir!, an immersive journey that unfolds like a fantastical fable. This record follows a mysterious red pilgrim on a quest through a mythical landscape. Eerie forests, stormy seas, and unholy mountains become the backdrop for the pilgrim’s encounters with strange beasts, injured birds, and ethereal beings. Tapir!’s music, rich with heartfelt vocals and idiosyncratic melodies, paints a vivid picture of this odyssey, drawing comparisons to the whimsical artistry of painters like Henry Darger and Henri Rousseau.
