It makes sense I had to watch a Pantene commercial before getting through to MGMT’s Spinner/Interface session: Andrew VanWyngarden has good obnoxious hair like the guy from Ted Leo’s band had three years ago. Regardless, the recently Cool Listed Summer Of Love-loving Brooklyn crew brought some of their Oracular Spectacular to the AOL studios. The resulting video has a certain graininess to it, which goes well with the music’s retrofit feel, but there are no very sexy girls who can dance for real, so the vibe’s not 100%.

“Electric Feel”

“Future Reflections”

If that wasn’t enough MGMT, you can check out “Pieces of What,” “The Handshake,” and watch an interview at Spinner. (Warning: The interview is pretty awkward.)

    don’t hate music blog warriors…MGMT might not be the best live band on the planet, but they have writen some of the best pop songs in a long while.

  2. I think this is an homage to The Old Grey Whistle Test

    I’ll second mother of twins sentiments. MGMT is easily one of my favorite bands/albums of this year. I saw them in June and the show far exceeded my expectations. They wrote one of most interesting and fun albums I heard all year. I love em.

  12. great CD, bad live band. what a shame.

  13. they look sad. Decided to relisten to the record with my initial oppinion of the first 5 excellent songs with 5 average songs at the end and that feeling is still the same. A few of the last 5 have cool parts but nothing I would catch myself singing like electric feel.
