My fvrt nw bnd

“Let’s make some music, make some money, find some models for wives.”

I’ve been getting myself all in a lather over MGMT (pronounced as it reads – as in ‘Booker T & the MGMTs’, not ‘Management’ – thanks to Wino.) Shitty name. A pain in the you know what to google, but what great music! Like a Californian Super Furry Animals or the long lost Siamese twin of the Flaming Lips, guitars are just on the right side of fuzzy, the keyboards are set to wonky, but not too wonky and everything’s wrapped up in a half decent melody. In short, weird tunes you can whistle. The album ‘Oracular Spectacular’ is released on 10th March and is only £6.99 from Play. The first track is called ‘Time To Pretend’ and I have played it about 43 times over the course of this weekend. Try before you buy here.

  1. Not “pronounced Management.” It’s pronounced M-G-M-T, the letters. See youtube vids of them on Jools and on David Letterman. THose guys know the name of the bands that come on. Or check with the band’s management (listed on their myspace page).

  2. Isn’t it Booker T and the MG’s? or are you just illustrating that it’s pronounced like letters?

  3. Hi I’m itaian, I really like MGMT…

  5. I absolutely LOVE MGMT!! They just sound so different from other bands that I have heard. If Flaming Lips is anything like them I’m sure I’ll love them. I need to check them out.
