I'm loving Skeletal Lamping and I think they're just great. Who agrees?

I haven't listened to Skeletal Lamping yet, but I wasn't a fan of Hissing Fauna or Icons, Abstract Three so... I probably won't like this.


That said I like their older stuff like The Gay Parade and, namely, Satanic Panic in the Attic.

They're extremely hit or miss. They have a few really fun and catchy songs (Heimdalsgate..., A Sentence of Sorts in Kongsvinger, Disconnect the Dots, Rapture Rapes the Muses, etc.) but most of their stuff is bland. I can put up with listening to Hissing Fauna and Satanic Panic all the way through, but Skeletal Lamping was just :x

Really, the best thing about them is the song titles on The Early Four-Track Recordings. XD

I think Skeletal Lamping is just great... There are a few filler songs I'm not enjoying, but for the most part it is awesome. I'll have to check out their older stuff.

The Sunlandic Twins is kind of boring... I wanted it to be cooler with that kind of name. Which albums are good?

Satanic Panic in the Attic isn't bad, and it has a much better name.

I managed to listen to the one with the cool names and The Gay Parade, both of which have better names than what the songs actually sound like... I couldn't make it all the way through Hissing Fauna because I got bored and realized I could listen to something more exciting.

OK, I don't think you guys are gay enough for this band. Skeletal Lamping is still great, Hissing Fauna is even better, and The Sunlandic Twins is decent too. I don't like the other stuff that much :/

Out of curiosity, what other bands will my heterosexuality keep me from enjoying?

Scissor Sisters. But I don't think I'm gay enough for them either. I'm not so sure though, Morgan... You like Metric quite a bit. Maybe you should reconsider things.

How does Metric compare to of Montreal or the Scissor Sisters? XD

Besides, one of the reasons I like them is because of Emily Haines. :P

They seem pretty gay to me. Bu anyway, just consult the Gay Indie Lovers group, not me:

Hm it appears Metric isn't listed there anymore. They were last week, but you know.

Yucky. I just realize this was one of their songs:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Mvm6KfJDE0

But anyway guys this band is totally amazing and they only get better and better. I can't decide which albums I like most anymore, but Satanic Panic, Sunlandic Twins, Hissing Fauna, and Skeletal Lamping are all really really really good!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, old news people. You didn't notice they just altered one of their songs for the commercial? There was a noticeable SELL-OUT backlash.

I didn't listen to them back then and I haven't heard that commercial in a while. Either way, of Montreal is wonderful! Kevin is working on a new album which they will release in 2009 I hear. Let me find the article again. Wait. I can't get to it. last.fm is being a douche.

Anyway, give Skeletal Lamping another try. I don't think it is as good as the others anymore, but it is definitely great in its own way.

EDIT: Found the article. http://exclaim.ca/articles/generalarticlesynopsfullart.aspx?csid2=844&fid1=35380

Also soon they will pass Radiohead on my last.fm!!!!
