MGMT

In this live performance from August 25, 2013, MGMT was riding high after the release of their third studio album, 'MGMT,' which came out just a few months prior in April 2013. This album marked a noticeable shift in their sound, steering away from the catchy pop of their earlier hits like 'Electric Feel' and 'Kids' toward a more experimental approach. Enthusiasts often discuss this transition, noting its mix of psychedelic and synth elements, which can be heard throughout this concert. Interestingly, the setlist features fan favorites like 'Time to Pretend' and 'Kids,' showcasing their keen ability to blend classic tracks with newer material, a move that shows their respect for their musical roots while still evolving. Did you notice the crowd’s energy? It's palpable, reflecting how deeply MGMT's music resonates even as they explore uncharted thematic territory.
