I like Of Montreal, but they put out albums so quickly that I find it difficult to keep up. I acquired their latest (I think) album called Skeletal Lamping. A couple blogs threw out the word 'controversial' when describing this particular release. Of Montreal is experimental pop music, and the driving force behind the band is a man who enjoys cross-dressing on stage. I wasn't too surprised to see the controversial tag, but I was a bit surprised when I turned on the third song--I like to listen to the third song first--and heard, well... I'll let you listen for yourself...

For Our Elegant Caste

You can stream the song off the internet using the link above. Turn your speakers up before pressing play so you get the full, awesome shock value. It makes me smile just thinking about it. If I wouldn't offend nearly everyone, I'd use that chorus as my cell ringtone. I just can't see myself in line at the bank when my phone rings like that. Yikes. It's bad enough that I've been singing it under my breath all day.

Wicked Wisdom also cracks me up because at the beginning he says, "I'm a motherfucking headliner, bitch, you don't even know it." The sass with which he says this makes my day.
