MGMT, pronounced management formed while studying music at Connecticut's Wesleyan University. Now based in Brooklyn, the duo, Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser, make acid-washed rock that has the pair running through the savannah like a pack of wild aborigines, while singing of cocaine and heroin binges, on the track "Time To Pretend." The track is of the duo's debut Oracular Spectacular.
Thanks, Dave. Over the past couple of nights, I’ve been jazzed to see some top-notch music on fresh installments of “The Late Show with David Letterman” - despite the ongoing Writers’ Guild strike that has been crippling the TV and film industries for weeks.On Tuesday, I caught the Brooklyn-based, tongue-in-cheek, quasi-psychedelic prog-pop-rock ensemble MGMT who remind me of the most baro
Alright, who's got their 3D glasses ready? If you don't already have your own pair, you're going to miss out on the wicked new vids coming out these days.

.On the first song on their debut record, MGMT let us know how they got here. The rock song-as-origin myth is nothing new-- from "Who Do You Love" through "Immigrant Song", to "We Share Our Mother's Health" and Kanye West's "Big Brother" and "Time to Pretend" situates itself in that canon. Emerging initially from a viscous electronic fluid, the song quickly takes shape as a bombastic electro-gl...
Anything that producer Dave Fridmann is involved in is worth a listen, and so here you go, a track off MGMT's debut, Oracular Spectacular, that is Mogger szanujzielen's favorite.
MGMT "Oracular Spectacular"Roxy S. 6 out of 10Supermodels? Bring 'em on. Drugs? Why not. Fast cars? Pile 'em high. No, this isn't a page torn from VICE Magazine. It’s more like an MGMT song. As I listened to the electro-pop duo's debut, I wondered just what you crazy kids have been up to with your damn technology.Since when did it become "cool" to sound like the Bee Gees? What is this new genre.

I love this song, and MGMT's original has been stuck in my head all week. It's a pretty cover for sure, but I'll admit that it lacks the intensity of the original. But I still like it. Plus it's interesting to hear covers. And what I will admit is that it's a great version if you're just driving around on a sunny day (even if it's one of the very few I've experienced this summer). Time to Pret...

You know that feeling you get every once in a while a song grabs you and won’t let go? A few years ago I fell in love to Metric “Hustle Rose” and then my life fell apart to BSS “Stars and Sons.” I got a new job and listened to LCD’s “All My Friends” and my heart broke again to “Someone Great.”MGMT’s “Time To Pretend” is kinda like that, only I don’t know what’s in sto
