As some of you already know, MGMT is expected to release Congratulations, their second full length album, on April 13. From that album, two tracks have been leaked to the internet and made available to pirate bloggers like me. So, I present to you:
MGMT - Congratulations
MGMT - Flash Delirium
Both tracks have a generous helping of MGMT's kooky attitude. 'Congratulations' is a slow track whose strumming guitar is reminiscent of Don McClean or America. In juxtaposition to the song's good 'ol feel, the song pays homage to far eastern influences with a distinctly sounding instrument called a Konghou (Chinese harp). 'Flash Delirium' is closer to what we might expect from MGMT with layered vocals and competing progressions, and finishes with the heaviest section we've heard from them yet.
Enjoy,
Jake
