In this electrifying live set at Popagandafestival in Stockholm on August 28, 2009, MGMT was riding high on the success of their debut album, 'Oracular Spectacular,' which had just catapulted them to stardom with hits like 'Time to Pretend' and 'Electric Feel.' It’s fascinating to see how their blend of psychedelic pop and indie rock resonated with audiences, capturing the surreal essence of youth and freedom.
