Of Montreal plays extremely energetic music that's a whole lot of fun. False Priest is the tenth album from this Athens, GA band, which was one of the founding members of the Elephant 6 Recording Company. The band has evolved much over the years, and its current incarnation hearkens back to David Bowie's '70s glam period. The third album in this glam phase (including 2006's Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?, and 2008's Skeletal Lamping), False Priest is another danceable sex-soaked romp with big nods to R&B. A featured guest artist is the amazing Janelle Monáe, who sings three duets with bandleader Kevin Barnes. Many of the songs are very funny, too.
I really liked this album, and recommend it.
Rating: A-
