Of Montreal are in the midst of a world tour behind the out-next-week Skeletal Lamping, and before a show in London, the band took to Rough Trade to do an acoustic set. Some intrepid Londoner took the trouble of posting some of the videos, including one of the band doing album highlight “For Our Elegant Caste.” It’s surprising how well both songs are pulled off (the other one is “And I’ve Seen A Bloody Shadow”) without the benefit of the glam and disco that make the tracks work on tape.
Skeletal Lamping is out on October 21 via Polyvinyl. [Stereogum]
