Ahead of it comes a final preview, called TAKE THE FORM. A voltaic, strumming
riff-ripper accompanied by a multi-psychedelic-colored ‘I got my eyes on you’ video.

Barnes: “It’s a song about trying to will a person into becoming something they’re not. Something that you want them to be for your own benefit, and suffering terribly as
a result.”

Vitalizing tunes that work faster than a stream of caffeine

4 April 2026

It’s already 30 years (time flies indeed) since Athens, Georgia-born Kevin Barnes
launched his band oF MONTREAL, named after a failed romance between him
and a woman ‘of Montreal‘.

Barnes just announced their 20th LP, titled Gethermead.
It will show up on 6 June. Tracklist and order info here.

The album was made following a lot of personal upheaval including a breakup
with his then-fiance which found him relocating from Vermont to Brooklyn.

The lead single, named WHEN is a flaming, riff-packed rocker.

Barnes: “‘When’ is mora a song about yearning, sadness, confusion, frustration, than it is a song about having sex. I’m hiding behind a shield of sexual bravado and pretending as if my only needs are physical. It’s very transparent that I’m longing for much more than just libidinal fulfillment, but those other things are being withheld.’”

“When can I fuck you again?”
