What with The Blakely having recently written up The Apples in Stereo, I thought I would post about fellow former E6ers Of Montreal. Despite the somewhat misleading name, the band is from Athens, Georgia. The band has a somewhat similar, albeit less electric sound, than The Apples in Stereo. Their Indie Pop music is at times incredibly catchy, and after a listening you might find yourself stuck on a tune for hours.
Their 2007 album, Hissing Fauna: Are You the Destroyer?, features emotional, personal lyrics, held up in harmonies and rhythm. The band was referenced in Poycpak's 2007 short entitled, Hipster Olympics (a funny video and tribute to Monty Python's The Upper Class Twit of the Year) as "a band that had been discovered and since sold out". Check out their song Heimdals Gate Like a Promethean and enjoy.
