of Montreal
Of Montreal, the project of Kevin Barnes, have released a new album, UR FUN, today via Polyvinyl. Now that the album is out, you can stream the whole thing below. Also below are of Montreal’s upcoming tour dates.
Previously of Montreal shared UR FUN‘s first single, “Peace to All Freaks,” which was one of our Songs of the Week. Then they shared another song from the album, “Polyaneurism,” via a video for the track. Then Barnes shared another song from the album, “You’ve Had Me Everywhere,” which was one of our Songs of the Week.
UR FUN is the follow-up to 2018’s White Is Relic/Irrealis Mood. A previous press release said that the album is inspired by Barnes’ relationship with songwriter Christina Schnieder of Locate S,1. Musical inspirations include Cyndi Lauper’s She’s So Unusual and Janet Jackson’s Control, in that Barnes set out to have every song on the album a catchy single. Barnes recorded the album in his home studio in Athens, Georgia.
