Passe Montagne – 'Oh My Satan' review

Published on

A few facts about Oh My Satan: the whole album is 21 minutes long. There is no singing. There are 20-plus different and unrepeated sections to each song, and heavy psych-rock riffs are liberally splattered across the whole album. In fact, so unconventional is this record it would be no surprise if the vinyl version were made of feathers.

Repeated listening yields slightly more, but really Oh My Satan is so knotty and dense that working out what’s happening is more time consuming than just listening to the disc. Perhaps that’s the idea: so fiercely does this record reject any sort of rules that applying conventional logic and criticism to it is slightly futile.
