Indie pop troupe Of Montreal's newest album is finished, according to the band's myspace page. Kevin Barnes, the Athens, Georgia outfit's free wheeling leader, reports that the follow up to 2007's Hissing Fauna Are You The Destroyer? has been mastered and is set for a fall release. It is tenatively titled Skeletal Lamping.
Barnes apparently did the yeoman's share of creating the new tunes, which he sees as a departure from the band's recent synth pop work. Says Barnes
i am so bored with art that makes sense and "works". i wanted to do somethings that didn't "work". very few things pique our interest while they are working as we expect them to, things are far more interesting when they are not working.
Clearly, Barnes & Co are no strangers to thinking, and performing, outside of the box.
A fall tour in support of Skeletal Lamping is also in the works.
