Sailors and strippers, Kevin trying to chose a God, and illustrations of the church being “full of losers” (Cheney, Falwell, and a skeletor Pope amongst others, in oM’s estimation) — just some of the fun in of Montreal’s animated ode to Barnes’s existential angst. We fully expect a glut of Gummys votes for Hissing Fauna…; let the rainbow harmonied/bass vamped “Gronlandic Edit” serve as adequate reminder. Produced by David Barnes and Nico Danger.

Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer? is out on Polyvinyl.

  5. Man… those Barnes brothers must do a LOT of drugs.
    I mean, that might be a bit obvious, but damn.

    well…that was trippy. the song is amazing though. scratch that, all of hissing fauna is amazing, minus the overly long and pretentious song “The Past is a Grotesque Animal”.

  7. I love that song.

    This song always starts the party. Might be the best album of the year.
