I’m reminded of the beginning of “Karaoke” by T-Pain, during which he emphatically insists “WATCH ME DO ME! WATCH ME DO ME!” and then precedes to do, love it or hate it, what he always does, and furthermore, what he does best. See also: False Priest by of Montreal.
of Montreal is a pop band. And a pop bands “live and die” factor is getting attention from as many people as possible. Upon a few listens, False Priest, seems to aim straight at the core of both the love of the lovers and the hate of the haters, and to me, that’s a peak achievement in the quest for attention. People who love of Montreal are going to get everything they want from this record and people who do not love of Montreal will have their fill of things to mock and disparage many times over with this new journey through the jizzed-out funk anthems of Kevin Barnes.
