Got an 8, not too shabby

I was really into it on first listen, and it just keeps growing on me more with successive listens. The album has quite a few sugary "big moments" but is also every bit as stubbornly off-kilter and idiosyncratic as we've come to expect from these guys, so that you have to hear some parts a few times before you really get a handle on them. I'm more convinced than ever that they do not much care what anyone thinks of them, and are just writing the stuff they dig. Also, I wish I would have been patient and saved the singles for the album release, but I couldn't resist. Nothing to Declare would have been amazing to hear for the first time with the rest of the album. It remains a major highlight of the album (and their whole discography) for me, such a wistfully beautiful/dreamy little masterpiece.

I think these songs are eye opening, they make you think about life and how it’s finite and how we grow and find our place in all this, having a good life is not getting to some destination but instead more coming to terms with what you’ve been given and what you have, life is short and I have nothing to declare. We are just all on our own journey and people will always have it worse than others

I'm personally genuinely feeling a 10 on this album, I adore it

I haven’t stopped listening to it from front to back since it came out. 45 minutes goes by like nothing with this album, every track has so much replay value. I’d give it a 10 too, I had really high expectations because they’re my favorite band and my expectations were shattered.

@@TylerG13 Congratulations was my favourite album by them, but this might overtake it.

mother nature is so good

I love the production, very modern and 80s at the same time

Album is incredible, 10/10 with no exaggeration for me. It was everything I wanted and hoped for. People In The Streets might be my new favorite MGMT song, I’ve heard it a million times already since the album dropped.

People in the Streets. My goddamned theme music 4ever

IT'S POWERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This album has definitely grown on me. I thought a lot of the songs (except for Bubblegum Dog and Nothing to Declare, which I instantly liked) were kinda mid the first time I listened, but I like most of them now. I'd give it a solid 8.

This one is definitely my favorite from them. It's consistently interesting from start to finish.

It’s so good, I mean I hear the adult contemporary and the 80’s. But to me the albums just a slushwave album, like production wise and compositional the songs sound like desert memories to me? Idk why. Tho the album I’m in love with it, it’s up there with the album “a beginners mind”

I need a MGMT album produced by Kavinsky 🙏🏾

he will not review it. i just wanna hear him take part in celebrating how good this thing is. its what his show is about. celebrating and sharing thoughts.

Just depends on the person. I love LDA just like everyone else, but this appeals to my current taste. The beauty of these songs and the production really hits a specific spot that I don't really get from their previous works. I am biased, though. I am a fanboy.

I think MGMT has a way of making music that maybe sounds basic on the surface and could be boring to people but it grows with multiple listens and more nuance unfolds. People didn’t like Congratulations when it first came out coming off of the poppy Oracular Spectacular.
