On Of Montreal’s latest album, Lady on the Cusp, Barnes shapeshifts between genres. On tracks like “Rude Girl on Rotation,” Barnes revisits sounds of late 60’s guitar pop & psychedelia, while “Young Hearts Bleed Free” and “Music Hurts The Head” showcase Barnes’ love of experimental funk pop that has been present throughout much of the band’s discography. Lady on the Cusp is another exciting listen from one of the most prolific and influential artists making music today.

Over the course of the last two decades, Of Montreal’s creative force, Kevin Barnes, has been wowing fans with their vast catalog of endlessly fascinating pop and mesmerising live shows. Barnes’ songwriting and production aesthetic has since become iconic in the industry and has garnered massive critical acclaim in publications such as Rolling Stone, The New York Times, NPR, and Pitchfork, who described the band’s album, Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer? as “ceaselessly fascinating and inexhaustibly replayable.”
