MGMT gets positive review in Greece

Two weeks without a mention of Wes darlings MGMT? I think not. FYI: even the Greeks are hopping on the MGMT bandwagon.

The Athens Voice recently gave a favorable review of the latest MGMT album, Oracular Spectacular:

They play “clumsily” and “off-handedly” with the impressions from a mini psychedelic trip that incorporates pop music trends from the age of Ian Hunter, Cuicide, CCR, and Spaceman 3. Two Americans attempt a blend of glam, punk, garage, and dance, processed into pop psychedelia. Encouraging debut.

Thanks to Anna Pachner '09 for the tip and Greek skillz.

I'm in France right now, and the big media magazine Télérama loves Oracular Spectacular! And they're playing in Paris in a few weeks!
