Of Montreal
The brainchild of multifaceted musician Kevin Barnes, Of Montreal was among the second wave of bands to emerge from the sprawling Elephant 6 collective in the 1990s. A style-shifting, influence-assimilating songwriter with a notably wordy lyrical style and formidable vocabulary, Barnes debuted the project with a tuneful lo-fi sound indebted to the psychedelic pop of the Beatles on 1997's Cherry Peel. With a rotating membership, Of Montreal went on to experiment further with '60s psychedelia on albums including 1999's The Gay Parade, eventually traversing more expansive indie pop (2004's Satanic Panic in the Attic), darker glam (2007's Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?), and indie electro-funk (2010's False Priest). Their highest-charting album, False Priest, reached number 34 on the Billboard 200. The group's 11th album, 2012's Paralytic Stalks, took their increasingly intricate psych-pop to new levels of density before the following year's Lousy with Sylvianbriar presented an unpredictably straightforward folk-rock. Still defying expectations, 2015's Aureate Gloom delved into proto-punk inspirations. Along the way, Of Montreal managed to gain a reputation for both sinuous musical modes and sharp pop hooks, and for lyrics that navigate detached (if warped) observation, personal heartbreak, and incisive sociopolitical commentary. Also a beloved live act known to employ elaborate costumes, role-playing, props, and supporting cast members on some tours -- and encouraging audiences of all persuasions -- Of Montreal issued the career-spanning live set Snare Lustrous Doomings in 2015. With Barnes' personal life influencing the project's musical whims more and more with time, Of Montreal's 16th studio album, 2020's Ur Fun, was a solo effort that reflected relationship stability via club-friendly dance-rock.
