FLASH DELIRIUM

Flash Delirium Cover Art

After a long two years of waiting we are finally blessed with a new MGMT single from their new album Congratulations titled "Flash Delirium". It was released today to the public as a free download and album "sampler".

It is very different then their high intensity Oracular Spectacular album. The song starts of in the usual manner of MGMT. it's a mix of synth beats, a weird islamic horn for a couple seconds, followed by some scary lyrics. this is followed by an up beat very "surf/beach" rhythm that can be compared with a mix of the Doors and Beck.

This single is getting a lot of mixed feelings from the true MGMT fans and the single loving youth of today. It takes you on a scary trip and you can get caught up in the summer time beat then next thing you know your up in the sky yelling FLASHHH.

Personally I really enjoy it. I like that their focusing on trying something new instead of worrying about making the "hit" catchy singles. After about 15 times on repeat it has grown a lot on me and I am looking forward to the album thats due out on april 12th.
