Nah MGMT were hipster potheads so it's almost entirely assured they were influenced.
>>
>>64333914
even then the similarities are nebulous at best, while the similarities to Flaming Lips are much more blatant.

maybe not the self-titled, I listened to it once and wiped it from my memory and I assume it must have been for a good reason.

Nah their music is pretty different but AC is pretty influential at least on OS.

Bands have multiple influences though, and you're right, FL is also pretty influential for them.

To be perfectly honest, you might as well say:

Michigan and especially Seven Swans were apparently highly influenced by Nick Drake.

Elliott Smith vibes didn't pop up until Carrie and Lowell.

Paul Simon has always been an influence for him, and then obviously All Delighted People EP might as well be a tribute to him.

Nah, I'd say

Merriweather Post Pavillion would never have happened if Oracular Spectacular hadn't been commercially successful. /mu/ cucks will deny this all day but it's true. Sure MPP continues some sounds from Person Pitch but overall it takes way more influence from OS. Fucking trust fund babies chasing wherever the money goes, big fucking surprise.
