The Sunlandic Twins

of Montreal

A neon-soaked pivot into electronic dance-pop. High-energy drum machines and rubbery basslines mask deeply neurotic, surrealist songwriting.

February 23, 2005 · Polyvinyl Record Company

A manic, neon-colored dance party masking deep existential restlessness.

Moments Worth Listening For
The infectious, rubbery bassline that carries the surreal imagery of Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games.
The sudden shift into a driving, dance-punk energy during the climax of The Party's Crashing Us.
The icy, minimalist synth pulses and detached vocal delivery on Oslo in the Summertime.
