"No Flashlight": Songs of the Fulfilled Night is the first true album released by the band Mount Eerie. It comes with a very large album fold out with one side showing a large illustration, and the other filled with extensive footnotes and explanations of the songs, with references, clippings, and photos. The drum tracks from this album were later released separately as The Drums from "No Flashlight" by Mt. Eerie, with the band claiming: "We felt the drums on 'No Flashlight' sounded good enough to listen to by themselves."[5]
