Description

of Montreals Kevin Barnes is one of the most prolific songwriters of his generation. Rarely does a day go by when Barnes cant be found in the studio he built at his Athens, GA home.

Equally as impressive as the number of songs of Montreal have released is the breadth of genres they span. It is beyond a doubt that the band has never released the same record twice and the bands new rarities collection is no exception.

Daughter Of Cloud compiles 17 of Montreal recordings ranging from the era of Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer? to the present. Ten of the albums songs are previously unreleased, while the other seven were originally issued on limited
edition, rare or out-print CDs and 7s.

Rather than arranging the songs chronologically, Barnes carefully sequenced the tracks on Daughter Of Cloud to give the listener the same feeling they would receive upon hearing a brand new album. As a result, youre never quite sure what to expect from one song to the next, but you can always be sure it will sound like nothing youve heard before.

Vinyl format includes digital download card.
