Not so serious MGMT

MGMT is a psychedelic synthpop group formed in 2002 in Brooklyn, NY. The band consists of multi-instrumentalists Andrew VanWyngarden, originally from Memphis Tennessee, (vocals, guitar, keyboards) and Ben Goldwasser (vocals, keyboards, synths, drums), both alumni of Wesleyan University.

Their most popular songs are "Time To Pretend" (featured on the motion picture "21" and the finale of the British drama "Skins," (the music video has reached over 2,000,000 views on YouTube) and "Electric Feel", their most bought single on iTunes.

MGMT are currently touring the US and Europe with Yeasayer. (read more)

Listen to Time To Pretend 

I'm feeling rough, I'm feeling raw, I'm in the prime of my life.
Let's make some music, make some money, find some models for wives.
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin, and f**k with the stars.
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars.

Top Albums 

If you don't care about catchy melody, but enjoy getting lost in a trippy synth experience this may be one of your favorite albums. But if that doesn't sound good, at least give "Kids" a listen. That song is great. Addictive, even.

Man I love these guys. 'this is our decision. to live fast and die young.' "Time to pretend" is the best!!!!! Their vocals sound kinda like Flaming Lips or Ben Gibbard to me.
