The new of Montreal album Paralytic Stalks arrives on Polyvinyl Records on Feb. 7, and today the band has announced the of Montreal tour schedule for 2012. It includes shows with Loney Dear, Deerhoof and Cults. Paralytic Stalks was recorded at Kevin Barnes home studio in Athens, GA, before moving the effort to Chase Park Transduction and brought in Drew Vandenburg.
Influences include modern classical, neo-prog, pseudo-country, and 60's pop. It has the same "personal confessions" style lyrics that colored Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? "Paralytic Stalks may be some of Barnes' darkest material to date, touching on topics such as self-hatred, revenge, human existence, his relationship with wife Nina, and others that illustrate an emotionally raw character," reads the statement from Polyvinyl Records.
Check out the song "Wintered Debts" above. Paralytic Stalks was recorded at Kevin Barnes home studio in Athens, GA, and Chase Park Transduction and brought in Drew Vandenburg.
