And while Of Montreal have always been theatrical and a bit all over the place, “Skeletal Lamping” is disjointed to the point where even the idea of dividing it into its 15 distinct tracks seems kind of pointless. Within almost every track there are at least two distinct movements, and Barnes unpacks a lot of music in those 15 songs.
