Congratulations (New MGMT album)

MrBoston - 4-14-2010 at 11:00 AM

I've had it since the leak and while there's no doubt it's a deviation from the last album, after a while it really grew on me. It;s more like the second half of Oracular Spectacular sonically with a weird psychedelic 50's surf-pop thing going on. Those take a while to get into but the ballads are readily palatable for most familiar with the first album.

What did everyone think?

I can't really say anything about them. I don't hate them, but I dont listen to them either. So...I would assume it would be good, because I've heard good things about it. This 50's surf-pop thing kind of internists me so I will look into it.

i thought the first album was pretty terrible...
but this new one is actually good.
i got it a while ago when it leaked, like you did.

and i LOVE "It's Working" and "Someone's Missing"
i think you'd like these songs sarbear!

Neck could you put it in the drop box? Pretty please, I'll grab it out and delete it unless other people want it

neckbeard - 4-14-2010 at 11:39 AM

Agreed. I love "Someones Missing" and I also love "I found a whistle"--such a great song.

I loved the last album but i just cant seem to get into this one....maybe it will grow on me ;)

Can someone put this album in the Dropbox again? I lost it along with all of my other music and have been craving some of the songs..I'd try to download it from somewhere else but I'm being super careful nowadays with downloads..I can't get another virus! Thanks!
