Sexy Trippy All Moods. Drinking Hanging Out In Love. Worse still were the two moments where the band pulled from their current mid-period. That track deserved to fizzle out upon arrival. To hear it in the resulting interviews since Oracular Spectacular , the duo immediately bored themselves with the style that made them popular. Perhaps they should have chased their more experimental muse under a different moniker; the decision to keep at it under the MGMT banner came across as an obstinate effort to reclaim their brand back from the fans.

Their new songs are vital, compelling works, yet in concert MGMT still feel like an entity imprisoned by their past. Just a little over a decade into their existence, MGMT are already treated as a legacy act running their course to dutifully let us remember an earlier, simpler time in our lives. And we should be grateful! Reliving the past is one of the most enjoyable ways to spend the present.

It takes a really cool open minded person to truly appreciate their music. Their music is like nothing you've ever heard. In fact there is almsot no way to define it. Instead of gloryfying dead rock bands like other present bands, they take it all the way back to the hippie days.

Many bands today will try to claim their music as experimental or different but THIS, my good friend, is what someone can truly call epic. You may have heard some of their songs on MTVU , 21, etc. They weren't even planning on going mainstream in the first place.

Because the truth is, their music is best enjoyed when you discover it yourself PS: If you call yourself a fan of theirs because you heard Time to Pretend on Gossip Girl, then you're here for the wrongest reasons. It isn't alternative or power-pop, no, those are labels for pretentious "rock" bands like Metro Station. The closest way to define MGMT's music would be "psychadellic".
