Congratulation to MGMT for their upcoming album

for their upcoming album

zeno is like the king of typos in thread titles

Based solely on amazing chorus in "The Youth" these guys deserve some attention.

That album cover makes perfect sense for this band. The first album's cover is not flattering and already looks dated.

congrats!

congrat

Really wish they'd have kept the original cover for the last album, I liked that much better.

So I'm confused now, is that the album cover or not? Did a quick search and other sources seem to agree.

Anyways I think it looks really good. Their first ep also had a psychedelic cartoon sort of cover so don't really understand why are you fighting upthread.

whatever your album cover ends up being MGMT i just wanna congratulate you guys on all your success, you definitely deserve it!

If anything their debut album should have kept the same sort of psychedelic cartoon style.

Congratulation MGMT.

congratulation to MGMT and all their supporters on their tremendous achievement

good luck mgmt

we should get them a card and all sign it

talking in a non-dickish way about mgmt album covers

hahaha brilliant

You can get the new single here:

Anyone like this? Definitely not a hit.

Congratulations on your new single MGMT!

Will the new album be less compressed than the debut? I am asking because the debut album was probably one of the loudest albums ever released, and I just cannot listen to it. It may be good, possible, but it wears my ears and head out to such an extent I just wasn't able to enjoy it.

this track sounds a lot like an Hot Cheap song

seeing as this album was financed by a major label, i'm willing to bet that they're just fucking around with this song (see also: album cover) and they'll put out a real single in a week or two

this apparently leaked late tonight -- assume it will get posted during tomorrow's hype cycle

it sounds like belle & sebastian or something

also these guys are dickheads

(unrelated)

damn, that is really really boring.

i am of course referring to the track, not jordans opinion.

congratulation, jordan, on your not-boring opinion

"My name is Beth Kaplan and the word I’m interested in is the word smarmy."

also these guys are dickheads

Is there a story that goes with this?

pretty sure i've seen posts from a member of the group on this very message board that confirm that.

In that case I retract my congratulation.

wtf?

Congratulation to MGMT for their upcoming suggest ban

yes it's true, all the members of the band are actually inexplicably named richard head

In the late summer of 2008, MGMT entered the Norwegian singles list at #1 with "Kids". The week after, it was completely gone. This one week at #1 in the singles list was MGMT's only placing ever on the Norwegian hitlists. I guess people smelled an obvious hype...

i want to know why they're dickheads and what thread(s) they posted on

A GREAT BIG CONGRATULATIONS TO MGMT!

i'm a member of MGMT. we toured constantly for 24 years to get our opportunity, over which time i personally have become pop music's preeminent harpsichord player, and i will be DAMNED if i am going to let some snot-nosed peons on an internet messageboard call me and my life partner dickheads. go fuck yourselves.

the track at Pfrk (Flash Delerium) is much better than the one above, but it is kind of a mess, maybe in a good way.

congrats?

i'm also a member of MGMT, and I'd like to thank ILX for their congratulations for our upcoming album.

don't get greedy dude, we didn't give you any more than one congratulation

i'm also a member of MGMT, and I'd like to thank ILX for their congratulations for our upcoming album.

CONGRATS ON THE NEW MGMT ALBUM WHICH I'M NOW ASSUMING SOUNDS A LOT LIKE OUTTAKES FROM PLANET WAVES

Thank you. There's also a little Chrome Dreams in there, as well.

"Flash Delerium (Remix)" - MGMT feat. Kid Cudi, Ralph Molina, Rivers Cuomo, and Daniel Lanois

perfect

from brooklynvegan:

You have won a chance to be part of an extraordinary MGMT event. The MGMTmobile will be visiting 6 cities, and we are challenging YOU to come find it

We will reveal clues to the location 1 hour prior to arrival. The first 6 people to this location will be part of a very special MGMT experience. Be sure to stay tuned as we reveal each city below. [Where is MGMT?]

This show "event" starts at 5pm?

UPDATE: This is NOT a show. My guess: they're going to play the record for people that get there in time.
UPDATE 2: And it's not even for that many people. The first people that got there went into a van I think.
UPDATE 3: The first few people that got there were loaded in a van. The rest saw "MGMT Was Here" written in on the sidewalk and were GIVEN A BUTTON!

Sorry I ever even posted about this. :-( -- Lame stunt.

lol

very special

This is growing on me

the only indie album I have on rotation

going to see these guys in one week, i'm so excited. i now know the new album inside and out. i actually don't know Congratulation that well, only the debut and the new album.

You should listen to it, it's one of the best albums of the decade

"Flash Delirium" in particular is my favorite MGMT song. (And video.)

yeah it really is. title track, song for dan treacy, it's working are all completely classic

Buddy saw them and said they did a video mocking those who only like their 3 huge hits. Yeah - only the hits you made your careers on :-/

seeing these guys tonight, so excited. have no idea what to expect.

It'll be good!

the show was amazing. it leaned heavily on the new album witch was fine with me. it was all techno color and made you want to dance. the did play their three big hits and the place was packed. they had video going on with a smaller HD screen in front of a bigger screen and flashed all sorts of stuff on it. they were pretty psychedelic for the most part. fun show and will see these guys again. they should be massive in this type of music climatic (2018).

is anyone on here seeing them in Hollywood tonight?

they played the same set but closed the show with "Siberian Breaks" instead. "Congratulations" was also played but was the last song before the Encore instead.

Congratulations to MGMT

Sick encore

enjoyable new single

Wow that's great and a little bit new for them, I could take a whole album of songs like this. Bunch of youtube comments point out a Cure influence and I can hear that

Definitely sounds like The Cure

Is 11•11•11 any good?

Me and Michael booms!

Always like returning to little dark age whenever I need that particular taste of pop. Giving congratulations its first listen based on the reaction in this thread. Loving this second song, like a mid era Beatles song at 1.5x speed and a coat of slick modern production
