The last time I saw this song performed live was at Roseland Ballroom. This take on Skeletal Lamping‘s “Beware Our Nubile Miscreants” is considerably more stripped, partially because it features Barnes and the Late B.P. Helium on acoustic guitars, mostly because this time Kevin and his brother aren’t dressed as centaurs and fife-blowing satyrs. This time it’s intimate. The full touring troupe is in tow, though, so it’s more a rearrangement than an Unplugged performance, with a handful of psychedelic swooshes and occasional keyboard drums to color the song’s E6 pop core. Also this is starting to look like The Curious Case Of Kevin Barnes.
“Beware Our Nubile Miscreants”
Two more tunes and an interview over at Spinner.

i actually like this more than the album version
<3
Not bad. I’m not much of a fan of oM but the song is a good one. The bass player was doing some really interesting stuff but the electro-assbaggery was getting in the way and you couldn’t hear he was doing. Ditto on the guitars. I don’t mind electronics but this was like a bad sound board job with one thing drowning out the rest.
yea, I love the bass in this. Most Of Montreal songs have really cool bass lines and sometimes dueling basses. Also, I dig the acoustic rendition.
absolutely loved it. a little better than the album version even.
what’s with the first two doofuses pimping their blogs on here. stay away spammers!
It seems to me that sunglasses are very popular amongst today’s 30-something indie rockers. 3 1/2 out of 6 for these guys.
i wish they were still in the U.S, anybody have any idea when there coming back?
They’re going to be back by april 25th for the awesome and free Norman Music Festival!!!!!
A++ here, very cool rendition
