Of Montreal – Famine Affair
of Montreal video have released a new racy video for 'Famine Affair', taken from current album 'False Priest'. The clip was directed by Jason Miller (who also did the 'Coquet Coquette' video) and Nina Barnes (frontman Kevin's wife and former band member).
In the clip, a man confronts a gaggle of attractive women, whose baby shower-esque party turns into an orgy of sorts. When he confronts the group, he's overpowered and battered, then forced to perform….
Kevin Barnes explains further about the video: “It's the story of a man living in a feminine empire. As a male, he is considered lower class. He is expected to abstain from any social interaction with members of the ruling class, and provide sperm for breeding rituals. Each household is provided by the State with one male, the housemale is not permitted to leave the grounds. The housemale must live in the estate he is assigned to until death or sexual impotence.”
of Montreal is also holding a remix contest for 'Famine Affair' via SoundCloud – with a prize of $500 and the band's complete digital discography going to the winner of a popular vote.
