Of Montreal Performs 'Suffer For Fashion' Live at Columbia University
On April 24, 2010, Of Montreal delivered a vibrant live performance of "Suffer For Fashion" at Columbia University. This show came during a particularly dynamic phase for the band, following their acclaimed album, "Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?" which was released in 2007. That album marked a turning point, showcasing a blend of eclectic sounds and profound thematic elements. Interestingly, the band's frontman, Kevin Barnes, has noted that this era was particularly introspective, reflecting on personal struggles and complexities in life and relationships. By 2010, the band's colorful, theatrical live shows had become a hallmark, merging music with visual artistry, a testament to their innovative spirit. Watching this performance is like stepping into a kaleidoscope—it's not just a concert; it's an experience, a joyful commotion that pulls you in and makes you feel part of something truly special.
