90s Indie Faves Of Montreal Prepare 20th Anniversary Reissue of ‘Sunlandic Twins’

In the ’90s Of Montreal was part of the great Elephant 6 collective and issued a series of excellent, off-kilter albums, one of those being Sunladic Twins, for which Kevin Barnes and his band have prepared a 20th anniversary reissue.

The album will be released through Polyvinyl Records on March 14, 2025. Among others, the album will include the unearthed rare B-side “Family Nouveau.”

of Montreal is an American indie pop band from Athens, Georgia. It was founded by frontperson Kevin Barnes in 1996, named after a failed romance between Barnes and a woman “of Montreal”. Throughout its existence, of Montreal’s musical style has evolved considerably and drawn inspiration from 1960s psychedelic pop acts.

The Sunlandic Twins was the band’s seventh album, and it continued further into the more electronic territory first explored on 2004’s Satanic Panic in the Attic. As with the previous six albums, David Barnes, Kevin’s brother, created all the artwork for The Sunlandic Twins, including the album cover and an etching on the B-side of the vinyl edition.
