Of Montreal - Forecast Fascist Future Live at Terminal 5
In September 2009, Of Montreal was riding high on the waves of their vibrant and eclectic sound, having recently released the album "Skeletal Lamping." The live recording of "Forecast Fascist Future" at Terminal 5 in New York beautifully showcases their signature blend of indie pop and theatrical performance. This recording captures a unique period in the band's evolution, where they were moving beyond the more straightforward pop of their earlier work, like "Sunlandic Twins," and exploring a more experimental sound. The colorful stage setup and energetic crowd reflect the band's playful yet introspective style. It’s interesting to note that this performance came during a time when the band was gaining significant traction in the indie scene, illustrating their growth and ability to connect deeply with their audience.
