Of Montreal offers up Skeletal Lamping collection
September 29th, 2008 by Carly M. Alaimo in Music news
Of Montreal has abandoned the days of geometrically safe album packaging in “The Skeletal Lamping Collection,” a mind-bending line of totes, lamps, apparel, decals and CD’s stemming from the philosophy that all art objects should be unique, functional, and aesthetically pleasing. Designed by collective artists, Gemini Tactics and The Bee With Wheels, Skeletal Lamping products are what the Garden of Eden would look like on an acid trip; legless horses dashing through rich floral blobs, rigid bursts of light, and pale caricatures anonymously floating among the chaos. The band hopes to inspire new trends in the music industry, breaking away from standard packaging techniques, steering the infusion modern art and music in unexpected directions.
