Dude, this is too good…. Following all the sensational internet-buzz made by my totally made-up prank-announcement that they would be releasing a new album called lousy with sylvianbriar on Polyvinyl come October 8 of this year, Athens-based weird-rockers of Montreal have apparently decided to totally release a new album called lousy with sylvianbriar on Polyvinyl on October 8! I even made them cobble together a lead single to release really quick!
And now, Kevin Barnes and co. have taken it one step further and announced that they’ll be going on a full-blown fall tour of the US to support the album that I invented. Seriously! They leave October 18 from Athens and will be schlepping away on the road clear through Thanksgiving. All because of me!
What do you say, guys? Am I God, or am I fucking God?
