Of Montreal and MGMT Men Start New Band

March 20, 2008
Of Montreal and MGMT Men Start New BandOf Montreal front man Kevin Barnes has linked up with MGMT’s Andrew VanWyngarden to start a new side project.

Called Blikk Fang the duo began the group as a bit of a joke but now it seems to have become more serious with releases a prospect for the distant future.

According to Chocolate Bobka Barnes’ Of Montreal band mate the Late BP Helium said: "(Barnes and VanWyngarden have) been half-jokingly writing songs for each other for a while.

"Kevin will think of an absurd title and tell Andrew to write a song...and then he does! And vice versa. But now, it will be more collaborative."

Pitchfork adds that it is “unlikely that anything will get released before the winter of 2008."

Working titles for tracks include ‘Dead Dogs’, ‘Pleasure Cunt’ and ‘Hypnotic Agents’.
