Kevin Barnes dropped news sure to excite indie music fans and ad execs the world over today on Of Montreal's MySpace blog. His follow-up to last year's wildly successful Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? should hit record store shelves sometime in October—which means it'll materialize on some dudes blog in late summer. It's called Skeletal Lamping and it's all about "capturing the labyrinthine complexity of this human consciousness." So says Mr. Barnes: i've finished the new album. i've been working on it for over a year. it's mastered and ready to go.
it won't come out till october though. i am very happy with it. i worry that some people are going to misunderstand it. there's nothing i can do about that though, now, it is done. anyways,i didn't create it to give people something to like. i created it because i was compelled to.
