It was a concept album based on a disastrous trip through Europe with his wife that nearly resulted in getting a divorce and led to him getting on antidepressants and becoming a more gender fluid, Prince-obsessed weirdo (in a good way). A lot of the women he references on that album are actually references to him repressing his feminine side and struggling to come to terms with being a man and a husband.

The trajectory of of Montreal is fucking nuts considering they started out as the most twee and folky of the twee and folky Athens, GA scene that also put out Neutral Milk Hotel, Apples in Stereo, Elf Power and whatnot.
