While you were all too busy getting stoned on April 20th, MGMT was busy releasing their first single to the public in over 3 years. " Alien Days " is the name of the song, and it is a tasty little number, I must say. For those of you who gave up on MGMT after their first album, I forgive you because if you gave up then you were never really a fan anyways. It's like when people say, "I used to be a [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-13T23:45:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4948416/my-bloody-valentine-yeah-yeah-yeahs-and-mgmt-top-fyf/

The rain today is a blessing. It's a welcome dreary day that makes staying inside and getting everything on your to-do list done seem like a good use of your hours. It's been blissfully spring here in New York, but I've been stuck behind my desk fashioning together models of a performance space I've been working on for my final exhibition this week staring out at the people in chilling on the steps of Union Square, eating Mister Softee, sipping iced coffee, and generally enjoying the city. I've never been more envious of Union Square than I have been this [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-08T02:49:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4937814/fmlybnd-electricity/

The exquisitely psychadelic MGMT released this new track on Record Store Day as a cassingle then graciously posted it the web to everyone's ecstatic delight. The lead vocalist, VanWyngarden, says the song is"about that feeling when a parasitic alien is in your head, controlling things.", and this totally makes sense upon listening to the screwy but savory track. "Alien Days" is a track from their forthcoming third full-length expected later this year which is said to be weirder, synth-heavier and not meant to be "music that everyone understands the first time they hear it".
