Of Montreal - False Priest


"you took me centuries to master, in the next life i will have to learn you faster"

This album is great. Pop for 2010.


Production is off the roof (Jon Brion has touched the album with his godlike genious),fresh sounds keep coming from everywhere, lyrics are concinstently whitty (all about sex, picking up lovers, etc), the music is just great, even the featuring artists (Janelle Monae and Solange) show the quality of the album . Impressive effort by Of Montreal.

This album is for keeps and you should start bitting your nails for it. I bet Prince would be proud of a song like "Girl Named Hello" (who's your reggae woman now, I did a line with a girl named Hello). And, I bet Pavement would be proud of a song like "Famine Affair".

"False Priest" is out this September 14th on Polyvinyl records (current home of Asobi Seksu, Archithecture in Helsinki, Japandroids, Loney Dear, plus more). Prepare to spend here.
