MGMT - It's Working

Thank God for college drop outs. What would we, or more specifically I, have done if MGMT hadn't quit Wesleyan University? What would I have spent the summer of 2008 listening religiously to?!

This year MGMT released their second album Congratulations following the soundtrack to summer 2008 that was Oracular Spectacular. I was lucky enough to see it performed before its release at Heaven in London which showed not only that they can pen amazing summer anthems, but are worthy musicians too. I love the heightened '60s vibe of this record, as well as the surprise that Andrew VanWyngarden can pull off some relatively normal clothes. Did he keep all those ponchos?

Today they released the follow up video to Flash Delirium, It's Working.
