NAME: of Montreal PROGRESS REPORT: Prepping False Priest ("I'm back and forth between The Controller Sphere, and False Priest") the followup to Skeletal Lamping, out sometime in August or September. Engineered by Jon Brion (probably). Featuring cameos from Solange Knowles, Janelle Monae and "one or two other people..." The anticipated new of Montreal album may or may not be complete. Kevin Barnes says it all depends on how some upcoming sessions with Jon Brion work out. Barnes, who's always worked at home, alone, will meet up with Brion in early spring to work on the 16 songs that will likely make the new record. "If I wasn't going to go out there with Jon then they'd basically be done. They could be done. If I go out there with Jon and we both decide it's not working or whatever, I'll still have an album. And if I go out there and figure this is really great, then I'll have a different album," he says. Either way, the album won't be Skeletal Lamping over again. Barnes says the band is using this break to rethink their live performances, and have made an album that accommodates that. His plans are ambitious: he'd like to get rid of of Montreal's pre-recorded backing tracks, and round out the band line-up to ten or so musicians. "We're going to try to do something closer to the kind of bands that Curtis Mayfield or Stevie Wonder had in the '70s," says Barnes. Continue reading Progress Report: of Montreal...

If you wanna do Fashion Week right, there's a simple trick: know which bars all the "beautiful" people will be at, and then avoid them all so hard. It's a simple trick that works wonders if you love to avoid terrible humans. Every so often, though, one of these designers/stores/whathaveyou will throw an afterparty with a musical act that isn't L...

of Montreal: New of Montreal Video - "Mingusings" (Stereogum Premiere)
submitted by Nick Jul 22nd 2009 10:00 pm (stereogum.com)
Kevin Barnes is already road-testing new tunes because when is KB not writing new tunes, but as usual his mind and muses are moving a few gears too fast for a promo cycle still chewing on the schizophrenic pop freakouts of the excellent, if not Hissing Fauna-excellent, Skeletal Lamping LP. This new video for "Mingusings" falls very neatly inside...
