of Montreal

In 2007, the band of Montreal was on a creative high following the release of their album 'Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?', which had hit the shelves just a few months prior. This album, often viewed as a pivotal moment in their career, showcased their distinctive blend of psychedelic pop and indie rock, solidifying their reputation in the music scene. The live recording from Bronson on May 17, 2007, captures a vibrant performance of 'Suffer for Fashion', a track that perfectly encapsulates the band’s eclectic style and emotional depth. Interestingly, the band's frontman, Kevin Barnes, had been exploring themes of identity and personal struggle in this period, making their live shows not just concerts, but a unique form of artistic expression. The energetic atmosphere of the performance is no doubt fueled by the band's recent critical acclaim and their eclectic musical influences.
