MGMT

On December 13, 2013, MGMT performed live at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, showcasing not only their eclectic sound but also the transitional phase of their career. By this time, they had released their self-titled album 'MGMT' just a few months earlier, which marked a departure from their early hits. Fans were buzzing with anticipation, eager to see how the band would incorporate their more experimental sound into a live setting. This album, while less commercially successful than its predecessors, showcased a bold artistic shift that some fans embraced while others found challenging. During this concert, audiences experienced a blend of their classic tunes like 'Time to Pretend' alongside newer, more abstract pieces. It’s fascinating to think about how this live performance captured a moment of reflection in their journey—evolving from the infectious pop anthems of their debut into a more introspective sound, and how that evolution resonated in the energy of the Barclays Center.
