In 2008, MGMT was riding high on the success of their debut album, "Oracular Spectacular," which had captivated listeners worldwide with its blend of psychedelia and pop. The live performance of "Metanoia" at the Inrocks Festival showcases the band's experimental edge, reflecting their artistic evolution as they explored deeper themes in their music. This particular performance captured a moment of growth for MGMT, as they transitioned from chart-topping hits like "Time to Pretend" and "Electric Feel" to even more intricate and atmospheric sounds.
