I'm not a big fan of claiming the newest thing as the best thing, but I do believe I'd rate this album higher than their previous self-titled album from 4 years ago. I know a lot of people aren't a fan of their live performances, but I think anyone would agree they've always been more of a studio band than a live act.

Anyone who's a big fan of New Wave and/or psychedelic rock might want to give it a listen. It's a short listen, 10 songs. One Thing Left To Try might be one of my favorite things they've done since the 2007 hits. She Works Out Too Much is a fun song. When You Die gives me Mac Demarco vibes.

I've listened to the 4 singles. I really really like Little Dark Age, When You Die, and Me & Michael. The music videos are so out there, too.

Can't wait to listen to the rest tomorrow.

I'd put One Thing Left To Try as one of the best things they've ever recorded.

Album is dropping at midnight on streaming services.

The song "Congratulations" is probably my fav MGMT song. Will check out the new album.

I really can’t state enough how severely underrated the album “Congratulations” is. The new album, like the self-titled, is growing on me with each listen.

Congratulations was the suck - might should give it another try tho.

Really liked the song/video for “cool song no. 2” off one of the albums after that. excited to listen to LDA after hearing the title track.

You really should give it another try, People were severely let down by the fact that there were no singles, but the album is a masterpiece. It’s working, Brian Eno, and Flash Delirium are my top 3. The album should be played in its entirety though.

Yeah I think the music sounds good through a pair of good headphones but the lyrics are so dumb and meaningless I’d be embarrassed to listen to it out loud.

Respectfully disagree. You must like all of the pop hits off of OS. Congratulations was a complete album.

I think Siberian Breaks might be their masterpiece song.
