Little Dark Age
“Little Dark Age brings MGMT back into full, funky, third-eye view”
Loss Of Life
“When it was time to make their fifth album ‘Loss of Life’, MGMT were armed with some quantifiable assurance that yes, people still cared. Throughout the first early stages of the pandemic, the title track to their 2018 album ‘Little Dark Age’ had become a TikTok and streaming smash, notching nearly 600 million plays on Spotify; it also spawned videos from millions of users – some of whom too young”

“Even Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser’s crash-landing introduction was nothing short of bewildering. In the odd dying embers of guitar music, nobody could predict the steep rise of a duo dressed as Lost Boys talking about electric eels. MGMT had wormed their way into the pop charts as if through druggy hypnosis, which is probably the best descriptor for the unforgettable “Kids” riff anyway. ”
Little Dark Age
“NY pop duo MGMT executes a fantastic return to form with the sounds of synth pop on Little Dark Age.”

And the odyssey continued: 2013’s ‘MGMT’ was an inaccessible curio, implying the band ”
Loss Of Life
“Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser’s fifth album is their most mature and reflective take on washed-out psych-rock yet—arriving easy, loose and immersive.”
