PRODUCT DETAILS
Edition: Limited Edition (1000 pressed)
Publisher: Sub Pop Records
Details: Written largely in New York between summer 2016 and winter 2017, Josh Tillman’s fourth Father John Misty LP, God’s Favorite Customer, reflects on the experience of being caught between the vertigo of heartbreak and the manic throes of freedom.
God’s Favorite Customer reveals a bittersweetness and directness in Tillman’s songwriting, without sacrificing any of his wit or taste for the absurd. From “Mr. Tillman,” where he trains his lens on his own misadventure, to the cavernous pain of estrangement in “Please Don’t Die,” Tillman plays with perspective throughout to alternatingly hilarious and devastating effect. “We’re Only People (And There’s Not Much Anyone Can Do About That)” is a meditation on our inner lives and the limitations we experience in our attempts to give and receive love. It stands in solidarity with the title track, which examines the ironic relationship between forgiveness and sin. Together, these are songs that demand to know either real love or what comes after, and as the album progresses, that entreaty leads to discovering the latter’s true stakes.
God's Favorite Customer was produced by Tillman and recorded with Jonathan Rado (Foxygen), Dave Cerminara (Jonathan Wilson, Foster the People, Conor Oberst), and Trevor Spencer (FJM). The album features contributions from Haxan Cloak, Natalie Mering of Weyes Blood, longtime collaborator Jonathan Wilson, and members of Misty’s touring band.
Album includes printed sleeve and a digital download.

Package arrived 2 days early. Album arrived in great condition. I love TMM. Probably one of my favorite albums. The marbled color look looks so cool. Highly recommend.
It was great, packaging was nice and the vinyl was gorgeous. Thank you so much!!
Great quality and fast shipping
Absolute treat having this great album on vinyl
Sounds good, looks good
quick delivery! In excellent condition :) Very happy with my purchase
I ordered this vinyl and it came in, I was super excited and every other record seemed to be fine. This one however had a bend, now it was sealed and there seemed to be no other damage so my assumption is it was a distributor issue but when I contacted to just make them aware, pale blue dot sent me another. This is the type of customer service that is above and beyond and it has made me a repeat customer. I cannot say anything better about the communication involved and the shipping speed was just as fast as well. This has become my new go to.
Bought here specifically because I found TDH for a good price but the customer service made it so much better. This particular album came in perfect. Will be ordering from here again.
Absolutely stunning
Packaged nicely and shipped super quick! The album is amazing and the vinyl is a beautiful red with little black swirls throughout!

Great selection, prices and shipping speed. Superior customer service! Tristan is not only quick to respond but extremely knowledgeable.
My first order but definitely won’t be the last!
Thank you Tristan and Pale Blue Dot Records!
This vinyl was very hard to find. It’s a great album by The Used and one of my favorites. I had a couple bad experiences with other companies but glad I found Pale Blue Dot. The quality of my vinyl received was perfect. Shipping was fast. Seller was communicative. I definitely plan to purchase through them rather than dealing with the mess of going through another company in the future. 10/10 would recommend.
Very beautiful variant :) came all intact
High quality vinyl, sounds accurate to the original source, I guess that earns a 5/5 from me
Love it
