Beat the Champ

Beat the Champ is the fifteenth studio album by the Mountain Goats, released on April 7, 2015 on Merge Records. The release is a concept album on professional wrestling, though frontman John Darnielle has stated that several of its songs are "really more about death and difficult-to-navigate interior spaces than wrestling." It is the first album to feature multi-instrumentalist and current member Matt Douglas; as well as the first album since Heretic Pride to feature former member Erik Friedlander.
