of Montreal

On November 17, 2007, of Montreal performed at the Ogden Theatre in Denver, showcasing their unique blend of eccentric pop and theatrical flair. Leading up to this live recording, the band had just released their critically acclaimed album "Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?" earlier that year, which marked a significant evolution in their sound, incorporating more electronic elements and introspective lyrics. This particular show featured the song "She's a Rejector," a fan favorite that exemplifies their whimsical yet poignant style. At this point in their career, of Montreal was riding a wave of creativity and popularity, becoming known not just for their catchy tunes but also for their vibrant live performances, which often include elaborate costumes and visual art. Interestingly, frontman Kevin Barnes had begun to delve deeper into themes of self-identity and emotional exploration, making this performance a vibrant snapshot of their artistic growth.
