In exciting news, a special edition of Daniel Johnston’s 1991 album Artistic Vice is coming out soon.
This new version will have extra tracks including some songs nobody has heard before, plus rehearsals and outtakes from Daniel and his Eye Band. Today, you can check out one of these songs called “All Good Children Got to Die.” The whole album drops on October 18 through Eternal Yip Eye/Thirty Tigers, all thanks to Mark Kramer who polished up the original tunes along with the new ones.
Daniel left us in 2019 when he was 58. We remember him as the "Godfather of Bedroom Pop."
