It's pretty sad that one of the best psychedelic albums from this century so far is ignored because it was made by a "normie band". Even their shitty debut with the 3 good singles is considered better than this far more cohesive and consistent album that doesn't even have filler unlike the aforementioned album. What a shame. Fuck Pitchfork.

AGREED
>>63721031
its disgusting how this has an average score of 3.21 on RYM
what the fuck
I fucking love this album. It's just noise to alot of my friends but god damn it's so good... Such a satisfying resolution. Hail MGMT!! New albums ok...
>>63721031
siberian breaks is GOAT
Brian Eno or Congratulations gets me off super hard but they all are ear climax worthy.
>>63720644
I love how every song takes it's own direction. After I listen to it I still feel like it's too short imo
This album is what I've longed for in my dreams.
I've noticed a lot more MGMT threads recently. seems like all the fans r getting hyped for the 4th album.
Seems like a lot of samefag ITT but yeah Congratulations is 9/10.

Can't be underrated desu
Listened to it for the cover art only because I loved it but I started to really like the album afterwards. Its definetly underrated. Was surprised to see the backlash to it. Hell it was the first time I agreed with the melonhead because he loved it too.
Does anyone know if they used kids singing or something on Congratulations? Like on It's Working and Flash Delirium
I think it's just the whole band singing. Best guess.

They got a woman back up vocal.
Yeah, they had 5 other heads help contribute to the album. It shows.
>>63721031
>p4k gave OS and Congratulations the exact same score
ok kid
>>63721031
for real it's a fucking lovely record. i've literally seen MGMT mentioned in the same breath as 21 Pilots and it's hard not to be upset about that.
>>63720644
Siberian breaks!
Legitimately my favorite rock ballad
>>63721031
BRIAN ENOOOOO
BRIAN ENOOOO
Pathetic level of songwriting.
>>63723262
DUDE
WEED
>>63720644
Not really that underrated. It's posted on /mu/ more than Oracular Spectacular these days.
The self-titled release? Now that's underrated.
>>63720644
Honestly one of my favourite albums ever. The only band and album I don't tell people I enjoy for fear of the assumption that its all like that first single. Sorta like how Electric Six are GOAT but everyone assumes its all Gay Bar.
>>63723364
but how can a 1/10 release be underrated anon
>>63721031
>In an interview with NME, they explained their reasoning behind it—that it's meant to be a complete body of songs rather than an album with standout singles. "We'd rather people hear the whole album as an album and see what tracks jump out rather than the ones that get played on the radio – if anything gets played on the radio!" Goldwasser explained. He added: "There definitely isn't a 'Time to Pretend' or a 'Kids' on the album. We've been talking about ways to make sure people hear the album as an album in order and not just figure out what are the best three tracks, download those and not listen to the rest of it"
So they got fucked for trying to make a less commercial, strong album. That's great
>>63723262
it's a funny nod to an iconic producer, depicting him as some religious figure. it's genius songwriting. you're just taking ONE lyric, putting it in all caps, and lengthening it to make them sound like they're fucking retards. your opinion is worthless, m8
>>63723262
Seriously? The songwriting in that song is great, you literally just picked two words from it. Faggot.
>>63723390
The first 3 tracks are literally the top 3 MGMT songs

> not underrated
Plebs like it. Are you a pleb anon?
Congratulations was fucking great but their latest album was forgettable as fuck.
>only song I remember is PLENTY OF GIRLS IN THE SEA and its not even that good
>>63720644
Erol Alkan's remix of Congratulations is much better than the depressing original.
>>63724064
This is far from underrated. Are you fucking retarded? Go back to r/music or whatever it's called.
