Athens, Georgia indie band Of Montreal have revealed details of their new album.
'Skeletal Lamping' will be released on October 10th, with one difference - a digital version of the album will be bundled with various items of clothing, stickers and other assorted goodies.
This means that people who order a digital version of the album via the band's website will get a free t-shirt/lamp/bag/poster to compensate for lack of artwork. In fact, the sextet have purposefully created the collection to replace traditional sleevenotes and artwork.
Frontman Kevin Barnes said: "We hope this idea catches on and, in the future, square CD packaging will be abandoned forever and only interesting art objects will fill record stores. We envision a time when you'll be walking around your local record shop and be like, 'What's the new Radiohead album again? Oh yeah, a bonsai tree in the shape of a deformed goat, I see it over there.'"
