"Skeletal Lamping" seems to be the tentative title of their 9th album!

Yeah, I've been looking forward to this for a bit now.

But I hadn't previously heard about the short, segmented songs. I'm really iffy on that. Well, we'll see. No doubt that Kevin Barnes is in fact some sort of crazy genius who has had no problem pulling off new, strange concepts prior... so, I have faith.

Also, Kevin is pretending to be Georgie Fruit, a transgendered black man.

More power to him, I guess? I have faith after Hissing Fauna.

come to think of it i saw one of their late shows on the tour and they were playing a song or two i havent heard before.

i assumed it was off an old EP that didnt get much spins for me.

also i read somewhere that kevin barnes perfers to have the o of "of" lowercase and the m of montreal upper.

i've notice on everyones year end list or this thread that most people are capatilizing the o.

^ If you wish to nitpick then fine... I love of Montreal . I'm sure whatever Barnes & Co. put out I will like it.

Haha, in that case I love of Montreal too...

Nice to see some good bands experimenting a lot. I think Kevin Barnes is just beginning to get comfortable with his new transformation and innovation in both music and persona. Very Bowie-esque. I highly doubt that this album he is talking about will be a critical success, but experiments often pave the way to future greatness.

I've gotta say that I think it sounds like the worst album I've ever heard. I'd be shocked if it weren't all a hoax. Sorry if that offends anyone

I guess I won't judge too much. Maybe it could be something new and interesting.

I'm a pro... my list has "o". Get your facts straight

This is probably my most anticipated album of 2008.

I think it's a cool idea and I'm interested to see if he can pull it off.

I'm just worried that it will skew my last.fm charts
