Cycling to Paris

the nights are short and the days are long

#22

And the good feelings and the correct grammar has stretched over to today.

Can I recommend to anyone who hasn't heard MGMT that they buy, download or steal a copy of Oracular Spectacular - it's a dramatic, refreshing new album from a relatively unknown group. I had only known "Time To Pretend", but there are some great tracks like "Time To Pretend", "Electric Feel", "Kids", "Pieces Of What", "Of Moons, Birds & Monsters" and "Future Reflections". I think "Kids" is probably my favourite, but all of the tracks work really well together.

It's quite surprising, because if you just base your assumptions on "Time To Pretend", then you'd think that they're just another electro band, but that's where you're wrong. They're like a modern day, revamped Pink Floyd. But better.

But that's just one man's opinion.
