Just when you thought you had your fill of sweaty, glitter-flecked summer nights on the dance floor, of Montreal demand you let them fire cannon-filled amounts of confetti in your face one last time. Go ahead. Just try and deny yourself that snowglobe-like, neon affair.
The costume-loving band plans on taking fur suits to a whole new level beginning on Labor Day weekend, supporting their latest EP on Polyvinyl, thecontrollersphere, taken from the same recording sessions as last year’s False Priest (TMT Review). If you can’t get enough of kitschy Kevin Barnes, the front man will play a handful of DJ sets under the name List Christee at select festival dates, one of which features mustachioed Eugene Hutz of Gogol Bordello. Something tells us things will stay saucy as you lick the last taste of BBQ deliciousness off your lips.
