Of Montreal
Of Montreal plays borderline-insane, psychedelic pop, commanding live shows that have been known to include a real horse onstage, copious body paint, and lots of writhing. The group’s 2008 album, Skeletal Lamping, flirted with disco, funk, and intergalactic pop; the band’s follow-up, False Priest, boasts a heavy R&B influence, as well as guest spots from Janelle Monáe and Solange Knowles. A new companion EP,thecontrollersphere, signals a coda to the band’s chapter as a purveyor of kaleidoscopic sex jams—unless the static scraping of lead track “Black Lion Massacre” gets you all hot and bothered.
