Of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping (2008)

I don't know why this gets such a bad reputation amongst Of Montreal fans. It's manic, for sure, and only seems to work in the album context, but it's got moments of absolute genius, and Gallery Piece is possibly the sexiest song I've ever heard. It's no Hissing Fauna, and it's a bit of an exhausting experiment, but Kevin Barnes fascinates me and it's definitely worthwhile.

I love it. Yes, it can be tiring because, as you said, it only works in the album context, but when I'm in the mood for it, it's great. I think this is ultimately the peak of what Kevin Barnes was working for if you listen to the progression of Satanic Panic to Skeletal Lamping. I think he failed with Coquelicot Asleep In the Poppies, learned how to write a decent pop song, and then attempted the style again here. He nailed it. Sadly, he went back to overthinking it again with False Priest. That album is a huge disappointment.

Pianos Become the Teeth - The Lack Long After





Such an emotionally raw album. I'm loving it.

^Nutshell and Rotten Apple kick so much ass!

I have loads of albums I've been digging over the past few months.


Wish You Were Here (Experience Edition)

A very good remaster of WYWH, but I think the extra material is where this thing shines :P. The live performance at Wembley is spectacular, with early versions of Dogs (You've Got to Be Crazy) and Sheep (Raving and Drooling) from Animals, which was completely unexpected and made this new release so much better. Alternate versions of Have a Cigar and the title song are present as well. Worth checking out.


Agalloch - Marrow of the Spirit

I went into the record store thinking, I want some Dark Ambient Black Metal, or something similar. I saw the cover and immediately got it. First track, ambient style track with strings, second track, fast headbanging metal with brutal vocals. It's finding albums and bands like these that make me realize I'm missing out on some great music.



Secede - Tryshasla

I might have posted this one a while back, but it's still worth the mention. Really unique sound, found it in the quest to find the perfect chillout album. Worth listening as loud as you can with the possible sound, as there is a lot to hear with this one.


My favorite track on the album.
Found out it featured Kettel which led to another great chillout album.

Kettel - My Dogan
