In news about an Elephant 6 film project that isn’t Major Organ and the Adding Machine, there is a new Of Montreal DVD in the works. Writing on the E6 message board (thanks to You Ain't No Picasso for the tip!), Of Montreal’s Late B.P. Helium announced that "we are working on a DVD. hopefully it will be out this fall. the last L.A. shows were recorded and will be a part of it." Although there is no trailer for the DVD yet as of yet, you can check out some amateur YouTube footage from the L.A. shows, featuring Kevin Barnes performing in fishnets and a mini-skirt. (He suffers for fashion, or whatever.)
In other Of Montreal news, as previously reported, the group has contributed a track to the The Green Owl Comp: A Benefit For The Energy Action Coalition. Released and distributed online (hooray for reducing your carbon footprint!), the compilation will benefit the Energy Action Coalition, and will feature Of Montreal’s "Feminine Effects." The track was speculated to be on the band’s upcoming album Skeletal Lamping, which Barnes spoke to us about recently at SXSW. The comp hits the web on April 8 and boasts an all-star lineup of Feist, Muse, Deerhoof, Bloc Party, Pete Yorn and others.
And if the Elephant 6 guys are reading this, we’re still waiting on Major Organ and the Adding Machine. Please, don’t make us come up to Athens. Paste rolls deep.
