A couple months ago we debuted Jon Brion’s remix of Skeletal Lamping‘s “Gallery Piece” from of Montreal’s inventively titled Jon Brion Remixes collection. The five-song EP is out next week. It also includes this take on “An Eluardian Instance,” retitled “First Time High (Reconstructionist Remix of ‘An Eluardian Instance’),” plus another version of “First Time High” and two more “Gallery Piece”s. It’s best experienced in Comcast HD.

Jon Brion Remix EP is out 1/27 via Polyvinyl in both CD and digital formats. The tracklist:

01 “First Time High” (Reconstructionist Remix of “An Eluardian Instance”)
02 “First Time High” (Of Chicago Acoustic Version)
03 “Gallery Piece” (Remix)
04 “Gallery Piece” (Long Version)
05 “Gallery Piece” (Instrumental)

It’ll look like this:

Finally, you weren’t having flashbacks, the band’s purple-hatted Letterman appearance did indeed repeat last night.

There’s fresh outrage, and sonic delight, in Of Montreal’s  new CD ‘Paralytic Stalks’ 
Barnes started Of Montreal back in the ’90s in a most un-Canadian place ... greatly focused the sound with the help of cinematically minded producer Jon Brion. Consider the new disk the revenge of whatever Barnes repressed then.

  1. Can someone please tell Kevin Barnes to stop the combover? Time to shave it, think of all the crazy-ass wigs he could be wearing.

    Anyone else find this unnecessary? I loved skeletal lamping, but these weren’t the best tracks.
