Title: Hyper Intelligent
Review: For a lot of musicians a genre has a macro feel to it. It's something that they fall under somewhere. Of Montreal converts the macro into the micro by playing genres as if they were as accesible as keys on a keyboard. Satanic Panic in the Attic is experimental in the sense that it effortlessly swirls between genres within each song. They really come off as musical experts here. At first listen it was too much for my brain to comprehend, but I love getting used to it. It's very complex and smart. You'll recognize parts of songs as if they were samples from the sunny pop of blur, beatles, or beach boys and that other band that you won't be able to put your finger on. Playful like Odelay, this album comes highly recommended.
