Don't ever say that Of Montreal never put effort into its image. This new promo photo (thanks P4K) shows the band colorfully decked-out, as usual, and with a new band member. The group also let everyone in on its not-so-secret cover art, which is really impressive.

So what else is new in the wild world of Of Montreal? Well, they recently welcomed a new member into their fold: Ahmed Gallab, aka Sinkane. Gallab recently filled in on the last Caribou tour.
