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).

Luxurious Feel, Durable Build… but Full Rotation Privileges Have Been Revoked 💙🦴 🐾
Color: Blue, Size: 6 IN, Color: Blue, Size: 6 IN
🐾 Hi, I’m PVD; toy curator, plush critic & occasional chew sommelier.
This armadillo arrived beautifully packaged and immediately met my standards for texture, squeak clarity and cuddle factor. I originally gave it 5 stars for quality; and still do! But today I’m updating the review to reflect my current toy lifestyle rotation. 😌
What impressed me from day one:
✔️ High-end plush feel; soft enough to nap on, tough enough for energetic zoom bites and great relief from teething
✔️ Strong stitching; survived multiple “stress tests” (I chewed with intention)
✔️ HQ squeaker; not tinny or annoying, more of a honk
✔️ 6in is perfect size for small breeds; easy to carry during dramatic hallway walks
Why it now gets 4 stars from a seasoned toy collector:
✘ As my luxury toy collection expanded, this one gets grabbed less often
✘ Simple design; I now favor more interactive or complex textures
✘ Still “keep-worthy,” just no longer VIP spot on the chaise lounge
Best For:
• Pups who enjoy soft comfort toys or emotional support snuggles
• Light to moderate chewers
• Dogs who like to carry their plushes around proudly
• Ideal as a teething toy or thoughtful gift
🚫 Not ideal for: power chewers or highly stimulation-driven pups (like me now; my taste evolved)
📝 Final Re-Barks:
Still recommend for pups who love cuddly squeaky companions. Great starter plush and great quality; just know that ultra-picky toy enthusiasts may rotate it out once newer models (or squeakier friends) arrive.

Well Constructed Toy But Short-Life Squeaker
Color: Gray, Size: 8 IN
Super cute and durable toy. Makes a "grunting" noise that my dog loves. However rating a little lower because my dog has only been playing with it (gently) for a couple weeks and the grunting noise is starting to die. But she does really like this toy regardless!

Cute and soft dog toy!
Color: Gray, Size: 8 IN
This very cute armadillo dog toy is nice and soft for our Golden Retriever to carry around in his mouth. He eventually likes to pull off the legs, ears, or anything else extending from the body of the toy and so far he hasn’t been able to do so with this one. Not saying that it’s not possible, so as with any toy, you should monitor your dog playing with it as we definitely have to. He also likes to continually make his toys squeak and this toy’s squeaker works very well!

Great Toy for tiny to giant pups
Color: Gray, Size: 8 IN
Cute Amarillo. My teacup Yorkie uses it as a pillow or chases and attacks it. Well stretched does not easily fall apart. Good value for the money. Suitable for all sized dogs.

Fun dog toy, but not for heavy chewers
Color: Pink, Size: 14 IN
The armadillo is cute. My pittie, Sasha, was very excited to see it. She just had TPLO surgery on her left knee (she tore her ACL just before the 4th of July), and I wanted to get her something she could play with while she convalesces, that isn't a ball—she really likes to run and jump and chase the ball, but with her knee out of commission, I didn't want her to get depressed being trapped in her crate while she heals—with this toy, she was able to keep playing and not over excert herself and get more hurt. It quickly became her favorite toy; she chews it relentlessly and gets made when I take it from her (see below).
It makes a funky squeak that's not a high-pitched squeak, like I thought it would be; it's more a low-pitched, lowing sound like a baby calf. One thing I would like to point out to other purchasers about what the description says:
"Durable and Long Lasting - Made from premium soft materials, our cute plush dog toys can withstand rough play for indoor or outdoor and last for years to come. The textured surface also helps massage and soothe your dog's gums during playtime"
This is a little misleading. It's a good texture and Sasha loved to play with it, but it wasn't very durable. It might be when compared to other chew toys, but not for my baby. She tore the nose off within 20 minutes of getting it. The next morning, she ripped off an ear, and I had to pull the stuffing out of the face so she wouldn't eat it while chewing away. She doesn't seem to mind, but I sure wish it had held up a little more.
All-in-all, this was a good toy for a few days.
