MGMT

In June 2009, MGMT was riding high on the success of their debut album, 'Oracular Spectacular,' which had exploded into the mainstream just a year prior. The band had quickly become a staple in the indie music scene, with hits like 'Time to Pretend' and 'Electric Feel' sparking dance parties from New York to Tokyo. Captured during their electrifying live performance at Bonnaroo, 'Congratulations' marked a moment of transition for the duo as they began to embrace a more experimental sound. Interestingly, this concert took place just before the release of their sophomore album, also titled 'Congratulations,' which would challenge their earlier pop sensibilities. This balance between commercial appeal and indie authenticity has become a signature aspect of their identity, leaving fans eager for what was next on their musical journey.
