of Montreal

Under his of Montreal moniker, Kevin Barnes has explored glam, psych, new wave and prog rock, but his 14th album, Innocence Reaches, fully embraces electronic influences. While there are a few EDM flourishes, for the most part, Barnes' latest effort sounds indebted to early electro rockers like ELO and '80s funk acts that integrated synths and drum machines—the kind of music that promises to really come alive in a concert setting.
