Of MontrealOf Montreal not from Montreal will be playing The Metropolis Oct 29th. For those of you that don’t know what to expect

Current stage setup consists of six risers. There are two drum risers, a bass riser, and a keyboard riser. We also have a riser in the center of the room that rotates and is on a 14ft rail system that is pushed out and rotated to reveal different scenes. We also use lots of video; we have a total of 5 projectors. 3 hung from the front and projected onto screens in the back and 2 rear projected screens that are attached to the rotating riser. We are very theatrical with lots of different things happening during the show. This show we have 4-5 stage performers creating different scenes while the band plays. The rotating riser will have props on them and be spun around to reveal them. Some of these include a 10 ft gallows that the singer mock hangs him self. There is also a scene where he comes out of a coffin covered in shaving cream, and one other scene where we blow feathers into the crowd.
Touring in support of the new record ‘Skeletal Lamping’.

The opening act will act will be Gang Gang Dance from Brooklyn. Stereogum thought they were best in show at CMJ for what thats worth.

Tickets: $23.00 available at: Cheap Thrills, L’Oblique, Atom heart, Phonopolis, online at TicketPro
