Daughter of Cloud is a compilation album by psychedelic pop group of Montreal. It was released on the Polyvinyl website and in stores on October 23, 2012.

The album was also released in a special-edition "Cyan" vinyl, which was limited to 500 copies.

Critical reception

The Line of Best Fit wrote that "existing converts will delight in the psychedelic cacophony, but those entering of Montreal’s world for the first time will most likely be left in a state of upheaval and disarray, slightly suffocated by the sheer diversity of ideas packed into such a small space."
