So, guys, what's your opinion?
Personally, I thought that Time To Pretend was really annoying. Lots of people bending over backwards to praise it, and I'm thinking to myself, what IS the big deal?
But then I heard Electric Feel, and I'm beginning to understand why...
Not sure if I will ever totally like them, but I'm prepared to give them a chance...
Any MGMT lovers/haters? Do your best to convince me as to why I should either persist with them or give them a very wide berth...

love the album - 'kids' is easily the best track on there.
seen them live twice, they were awesome at SXSW and were dreadful at the astoria recently. good band with potential, but they really need more material when it comes to playing live (or stop playing 7 min versions of everything). _________________

Great album, but really do need to see them live, to give you a full opinion.

I'm obsessed with their album, and am going to see them in Bristol in November. _________________ Unfortunately, the ninja had Anti-Drag-Queen X-Ray Glasses™, so their clever plan would soon be foiled.
