A band like MGMT are always gonna open themselves up to some hating, but they definitely don't deserve it all. I don't even have any issue with radio over-playing their songs (coz I don't listen to the radio... LOL), it's just the consistency of the album I have issues with. The variety they attempted was definitely admirable, but it may have been best left for their next album.

They're a good band to relax and groove to. Wouldn't say they've touched anything too deep within me though.

It is out at the start of March from memory. It will be interesting to see if it will make as much of an impression as their debut.

The new stuff they played at Splendour was terrible. But then again, their entire set was terrible.

well, AtavanHalen, none of the real members is IN the touring band so I'm not suprised they have a shitty live show

I don't know, I've always wondered too. I guess they hate touring?

Yeah, I wouldn't take the new songs being ordinary live to mean that the new album will be also terrible.



"none of the real members is IN the touring band" Umm, I don't think this is technically correct. I mean, of their 2 main members, one of them is a musician... & he definitely tours. I presume you mean the other nameless studio musicians.

I feel like after "Kids" the album kind of falls apart. It just doesn't interest me after that,somehow.

That's a fair comment. The album is definitely front-loaded. Pretty awesome up until then though.

I don't think you're the only one who can't get into them. They're not for everyone... Especially their non-singles.
