I'd agree it has two good songs

It has nice instrumentals, but I've listened to it a couple times and it doesn't really have catchy lyrics or melodies. A little too "out there" I guess, and the songs are similar sounding enough to cause listener fatigue

I don't regret this blind purchase but I'm not feeling it so far.

Which ones would you say those are?

Little Dark Age and When You Die, rest range from flat-out mediocre to boring. At least those are the ones I actually remembered.

When You're Small is a really bad song. Those are nursery level lyrics

Yeah and of course, they're in the beginning of the album. It just gets worse from there I would say

It's a classic pop format. Throw your effort in first so critics think the entire album must be great, when in reality it's a 3/10

yeh, after the first 4 songs the album fall hard

this but the last song is good

It's pretty disappointing because someone told me this album is great

everytime i get to that song were it sound like ariel pink's voice i drop it

it's only one male singer, right?

Any recent (2018 or newer) rock or pop albums you'd recommend that are actually good cover to cover? I'm looking to both add music to my tastes, and add some stuff to my physical collection.

It is ariel pink's voice you fucking mongoloid

wait it actually is, I knew he was helping out on the record but still, whole record gives me an ariel kinda vibe anyways. Not thats that's bad or only ariel does it

I for one thought that MGMT did a good job on LDA, yeah it's not anything that's too groundbreaking but it does a good job of affirming what quality pop should sound like in 2019

yeh I think its solid and has some strong singles i just think the album drags

the second half is definitely weaker than the first

it's good in a live setting where all their best material is performed together

nothing on this album is as good as Electric Feel. They kinda seem like a 1 trick pony

has streaming completely killed the art of making a good album?

have you ever heard Congratulations?

no, is it worth listening to?

LDA I blindly purchased but I'll just stream their other ones due to my disappointment

agree on those being the highlights of the album, despite When You Die being an Ariel Pink rip-off

The entire album is an Ariel rip-off

Congratulations is MGMT at their creative peak imo

again that song was co-written by ariel, it's can't be a rip-off if he's on the record

>it's can't be a rip-off if he's on the record
says who?

No, it has great production and great lyrics. The only thing is that I'm not down with the scene anymore. I am too uncool to be a member of their fans. I'll probably enjoy it more in a few years retrospectively (When the dust has settled).

what a gay post

fucking heathens

how does one rip off one's self

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I'm all sperged out for the forseable future.

If you value music for its lyrics then you're not really listening to music, you just want something to sing along to, fuck off.

Good lyrics can add a lot of value to a song, sing along value isn’t the only reason to have good lyrics

It's an ingredient of good music. Why would you disagree with that?

the album is great but why did they bring in yoni wolf to replace the band's lead singer on track 6?

TSLAMP is the best song on the album though

She Works Out Too Much & Me and Michael

it's ok, but not really catchy enough to be a 10/10 pop album
not sure why so many people absolutely love it

hmmmmm yeah.....
its a 10

I GRIEVE IN STEREO

have you heard Future Islands Singles?
I'd recommend that one, good cover to cover

Me and Michael is pretty great

my bad, you said 2018 and newer, missed that part
yeah I got nothing

agreed and based

>caring about the lyrics
lol
