Of Montreal - Friends of Mine

Here's a deep cut from indie glam-rockers Of Montreal, whom we'll be seeing with Painted Palms at Toad's Place tonight.  Off their 2002 tour-only EP, If He Is Protecting Our Nation, Then Who Will Protect Big Oil, Our Children?, comes their take on The Zombies' classic Odessey and Oracle track "Friends of Mine".  Of Montreal puts their unique melodic stamp on the tune, while keeping what is a quintessential sixties track "stuck" in the sixties.  This is in no way a bad thing.  The track is a free download on Polyvinyl's website for the EP, which has since been re-released commercially, or check out the video embedded below.  See you at the show tonight!
