Of Montreal has set an Oct. 7 release date for its ninth studio effort, "Skeletal Lamping," which follows closely after last year's "Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?"

"I am very happy with it," frontman Kevin Barnes wrote last fall of the forthcoming set on the band's MySpace blog, while noting his worry that "some people are going to misunderstand it. There's nothing I can do about that though, now, it is done. Anyways, I didn't create it to give people something to like. I created it because I was compelled to."

"It is possible to view this album as one long composition, with lots of different movements, or just as a collection of pop songs," Barnes added.

Of Montreal, supposedly named after Barnes' broken romance with a woman from the Canadian city, formed in the late '90s as part of the second wave of bands to emerge from the Elephant 6 collective, a notable musical co-op and recording label that spawned Olivia Tremor Control, Neutral Milk Hotel and The Apples in Stereo, among other bands.
