well this is weird to say the least!, reading a recent article saying the band 'want to stay underground' and avoid the typical arena tour route, they have certainly made there bed with this album.
MGMT are back with their follow up to 'Oracular Spectacular' which was a great album. MGMT have made mistakes on this release, its just simpley not that good at all, they are trying to be a bit quirky and strange to win over a few votes but sorry, theres weird and good, then theres pants. This is the later. Its not bad to the point that its unlistenable though, i get the vibe that most new music fans wont choose this over another recent release.
'Song for Dan Treacy' is the closest song you will get to reality and even this song is a bit topzy turvey. A really beautifully flowing song which takes you on a magical journey, this unfortunately cannot be said for the album as a whole.
'lady dada's nightmare' which is a ridic title kind of sums up the album.... a little bit dreamy but not the exciting dreams we have like being spiderman or winning the world cup...but a dream like im listening to the paint on the wall crumble away and theres not much happening, im gonna go and wait for a bus kind of dream.
a bit of a shame really because this band has/had potential.... little bit poor overall.
