I just don't get MGMT... :lazy:
Oh ok.

I like the uniqueness of their music, but I don't like "Electric Feel"

Aushim, you're an MGMT fan right? Listen to this song, it's sort of the same style:

Whoa! Thats some good shit, Christina!

Electric Feel? Listen to 'Kids' that's my favourite song from them.

Or listen to TV on the Radio. :)
I fuckin' love MGMT, Kids too!

I don't mind the electric feel. I thought M83's Saturday = Youth was one of the better albums last year, for example. But I don't think MGMT is particularly unique at all. Just a matter of taste I suppose... I just don't get MGMT and all the fuss.

If you're saying they're overrated then I agree on some level, they're definately over-hyped.

The over-hyped argument is the oldest trick in the book. We do that with footballers here all the time: great players who get a lot of press suddenly can't live up to their presumed Mt.-Olympus-like god status. So there's sometimes a tendency to dismiss things just because they're hyped, regardless of quality.

In MGMT's case, I really honestly wanted to like them. But on Oracular Spectacular, for example, there are a handful of songs that are OK and the rest are, IMO, throwaways. More than half of the mp3s from that album ended up in my Trash Bin.
