Bummer that the video for "An Eluardian Instance", a song taken from Of Montreal's Skeletal Lamping, is showing now only on Rolling Stone's postage stamp-sized player, but that's what were working with. If you squint a little bit, you can make out a long series of still photographs showing a rather surreal storybook being brought to life. We see a girl in a bright dress and funky sunglasses as she makes her way along a beach, digs for magical clams, builds a kite, and confronts a psychedelic mountain goat. Add lots of terrifically zany art direction and you have a fantastic reflection of Of Montreal's music.

If there's one thing of Montreal believe in, it's epic and fractured polysexual songs that nod to literature, dance music, and deeply melodic '70s styled glam jams. And if there's four things oM believe in, it's polysexual songs, steak, T-Mobile, and great HD service. Comcast has spruced up their bid to be your cable service provider with a quic...

Before 2008 ended, Kevin Barnes told us about some of his favorite things of the year. And before 2008 ended, we repeatedly told you Skeletal Lamping and its accompanying horseplay was one of ours. (You all agreed.) The rapturous "An Eluardian Instance" was always the strongest contender for single treatment, and with oM's pimped out Letterman p...

Back in October, of Montreal created one of the year's most iconic stage scenes when Kevin Barnes sang "St. Exquisite's Confessions" in nothing but gold lame short shorts on the back of a horse. Obviously neither the steed nor Kev's hottie briefs made it to Letterman last night, but he still brought some of Montrealesque theater to the Ed Sulliv...

Of Montreal pulled out all the stops on Letterman last night, enlisting their usual parade of fanciful props and costumes from their famously theatrical live shows. Barnes emerges from a curtained litter, decked in regal Prince purples, to perform "An Eluardian Instance" from this year's Skeletal Lamping.[Skeletal Lamping is out now on Polyvinyl]
