OF MONTREAL - SKELETAL LAMPING is by far my favorite album of all time. It is a masterpiece on so many levels. Think an erotic, funky, electronic Smile with lyrics worthy of Dylan.

Hello, Will. Late response, haven't checked this thread in awhile. To answer, I tend to like his late stuff. My favorite album is "Bone Machine". It's eclectic, odd-loaded, noise-centric, non-commercial & yet, it won awards & was quoted in RS. All tracks are very stylish, the music doesn't sound 90s, it's very modern. Sometimes I get the image he's jamming in my room. Crazy stuff is my thing, mostly. It's a win-win.
  "Bad As Me" I've not heard, but I did "Chicago" - great song! It's abrasive & quick as quicksilver; anything with marches is good in my book.
