Of Montreal performs Forcast Facist Future live at Bijou Theatre, Knoxville

Venue: Bijou Theatre Location: Knoxville, Tennessee, United States Date: October 2, 2007

In October 2007, of Montreal was riding high on the success of their album 'Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?', which had been released earlier that year. This album marked a pivotal moment in their career, featuring a blend of experimental sounds and poignant lyrics that captured a wide audience. During the live performance at Knoxville's Bijou Theatre, fans were treated to the vibrant energy that the band was renowned for, especially evident in songs like 'Forcast Facist Future.' An interesting tidbit is that 'Hissing Fauna' was a major shift for the band, showcasing Kevin Barnes' introspective songwriting during a time of personal turmoil. This performance not only highlights their dynamic live show but also solidifies their status as one of the prominent acts in the indie music scene at that time.
