Loss of Life

It starts well enough with Mother Nature, then drifts into background noise and comes back with Nothing Changes, only to dip again.

It's a well articulated statement, but it's nothing above the mean. These guys know how to craft good songs, but it's really lacking the catchiness of their previous efforts

Some of these other reviews are making me nervous for everyone's memories. Their entire debut album was on the original list that you all had to complete to get here! What do you people *mean* you only know "Kids" and "Electric Feel"???

Far as the music goes, I mean some days you release an album that defines an entire era of party music, and then some days 17 years later you produce something that's slower and more meditative, after dozens of other acts have already trod the same ground without being *nearly* as boring. Glad for the MGMT guys that they're still out there making music, but this one was a dud.

I liked MGMT's album that was included on the 1001 official list, but this one is God awful. I use the word "liked" loosely there.... I rated it a 3....the album on the original list was called Oracular Spectacular. Maybe a better word than liked would be "tolerated". Anyways, today's record is indie rock without a pulse. It's insanely boring. Nothing happens. Plus, the album was released in 2024, so it is too young to be included in a list like this.

Favourite song: Dancing in Babylon

Least favourite songs: Loss of Life

2/5

When I seen an MGMT album from 2024 I wasn’t sure, but was won over by this. Really nice Indy album.

Self-indulgent nonsense, from a band who have been told they were cool far too often, usually by dummies who wouldn't know actual cool if it slapped them in the face. If they hadn't had early success, and tried to release this pap as a new artist, it would never have seen the light of day. A band trading solely on prior reputation long before this album.
