00:00The thing about Of Montreal, either you've never heard of us, or we're your absolute favorite band.
00:05Of Montreal is probably one of the most kaleidoscopic bands of our time.
00:10It's like a family of traveling circus people.
00:13I like that we are some sort of escapist reality for these weird kids who latch on to us as
00:19sort of an identity.
00:20It's a bizarre celebration.
00:22Kevin is a weirdo, and it all starts with Kevin.
00:26We'd have done anything to get him to go to college, but his whole focus was on music.
00:32He would just record all the time.
00:35If I wasn't recording, I'd just be going nuts.
00:38People can throw it on at a party, move to it, but if you listen to it, it's a man
00:42in a dark plea for his own sanity.
00:47My career was doing better than ever, but my personal life was shit.
00:53Kevin was kind of losing his mind, and that affected all of us.
00:57I'm a gentle soul.
00:59I've never heard of anyone.
01:00There's an image presented to the world.
01:02Behind that, there are a lot of contradictions, a lot of cruelties.
01:06I got used to the idea of people coming and going.
01:08I never thought I would be one of them.
01:10It's a weird thing to be his friend and collaborator, or not even know the guy anymore, you know?
01:16You know, that hurts like hell, but oh my god, it's so good.
01:24I'm not really sentimental or nostalgic.
01:26I just want to do what's exciting at the time, you know, whatever I feel enthusiastic about.
01:31It's all about the new, not looking back, really.
01:34Thank you.
01:35Thank you.
01:35Thank you.
01:37Thank you.
