of Montreal Live Performance of Spiteful Intervention in Cleveland

Venue: Sala Apolo Location: Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain Date: April 29, 2012

In 2012, when of Montreal performed live in Cleveland, the band was riding high on the wave of their eclectic album "Paralytic Stalks," which had been released just a couple of months prior, in February. This album showcased Kevin Barnes' signature blend of art pop and psychedelic elements, reflecting personal struggles and existential themes that resonated with fans. Interestingly, the recording features a snippet of "Spiteful Intervention," a track that captures the band’s vivid and whimsical essence, infused with unexpected theatrics—like the balloons that playfully accompany the performance. This concert not only underscores the band's striking visual aesthetics but also highlights their ability to create immersive live experiences that leave a lasting impact. With a flair for the dramatic, Barnes and his crew solidified their reputation for creativity during this vibrant period.
