Of Montreal

For folks with some investment in the undefinable Athens, GA, outfit, Of Montreal’s disorderliness seems inseparable from its off-kilter charm, as seen on its latest offering, Lousy with Sylvianbriar—the twelfth overall and the fourth in the last five years. The band has spent the better part of two decades crafting neo-psych indie pop with notes of funk, electronica, Afrobeat, glam, krautrock—essentially anything that'll stick—leading to a wildly diverse back catalog, united only by frontman Kevin Barnes's introspective, melancholic lyrics.
