Beast:
What is the "concept" of this album?

WriterofAllWrongs:
From Wikipedia's article:


--- Quote ---"Barnes himself has described the album as a concept album, 'detailing his transformation from Kevin Barnes into Georgie Fruit.'
    ...
    'The transformation takes place during "The Past Is a Grotesque Animal,' the 12-minute long 'turning point' of the album."

According to Barnes, Georgie Fruit will play a prominent role on Skeletal Lamping. In the same interview with Pitchfork Media, Barnes elaborated on the Georgie Fruit's background and character:

    "The character's name is Georgie Fruit, and he's in his late forties, a black man who has been through multiple sex changes. He's been a man and a woman, and then back to a man. He's been to prison a couple of times. In the 70s he was in a band called Arousal, a funk rock band sort of like the Ohio Players. Then he went through a few different phases."
