YANP Interview With Kevin
Matt from You Ain't No Picasso has a new interview with Kevin up, and it looks like some really good, relevant, in-depth info:
-what was the main motivation to make such a different record (that damn commercial)
-how the negative reception of Cherry Peel kept Kevin writing about fictional characters not about his feelings for almost a decade
-why "Feminine Effects" didn't make the record and what'll eventually happen to it
-the origin of "Arlene"
-which of their covers was done because it's Alabee's favorite song

Rothbury Festival Video
Big thanks to Townhaller user Illuminated, who captured the online streaming video of of Montreal's performance at the Rothbury Festival in Michigan on Jul4. Illuminated wrote:
"Alright, the stream of this show was crappy and out of sync but I captured it anyway (it should all be fine, I didn't play it through all the way to check though).

To fix the out of sync audio you have to play it in VLC and then do CTRL+K (pc) or CTRL+G (mac) until it says 300 ms.
And here's an MP3 of Tender Fax (which might belong in the Skeletal Lamping info thread but..): http://www.mediafire.com/?tge2j3wjnzf"
Kevin's (July 4) comment about "Du Og Meg": "I wrote that song when Bush was in power, and I called the United States the 'evil empire', but I think if Obama's elected everything's going to change. We're not going to be an 'evil empire' anymore, and that feels good."
