Of Montreal - She's a Rejector Live Performance at Mercy Lounge, Nashville

Venue: Mercy Lounge Location: Nashville, Tennessee, United States Date: June 20, 2012

On June 20, 2012, of Montreal performed a lively set at Mercy Lounge in Nashville, showcasing their unique blend of psychedelic pop and performance art. By this point in their career, they had just released their album 'Paralytic Stalks' in February 2012, which marked a shift towards darker themes and more complex arrangements compared to their past work. Fans seemed to relish this evolution, yet missed the whimsical touches of earlier albums. Interestingly, lead singer Kevin Barnes has always been known for his theatrical performances, and this live recording reflects that energy. The show features 'She's a Rejector,' a fan favorite that captures the essence of longing and rejection—common threads in Barnes's songwriting. This performance encapsulated the vibrant artistry of of Montreal, giving fans a taste of their evolving sound while staying true to their flamboyant roots.
