Reviews"Filled with electro-processed recorders, mad Mellotrons, walls of fuzz and finely fingered acoustic guitars to go with MGMT's mystic mountain melodies...", Ranked #10 in Spin's "40 Best Albums of 2008in- "A State-Of-The-Art Party Album.", "MGMT have clearly soaked up a lot of the sort of stuff that bands of their ilk exist for...but, rather charmingly in these dread-heavy times, they dress it all up in expansively positive pop songs that are, generally, high as kites.", 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "ORACULAR is thick with countless layers of electronics, live instrumentation and vocal harmonies....It's brilliant.", Ranked #36 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2008" -- "With wild reverbs, huge keyboards and slippery lyrics...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "MGMT offer a series of rock pastiches so joyously over-egged that they become something new and celebratory. A sugary feast for the senses.", Ranked #13 in Clash's "The 40 Best Albums of 2008" -- "It's raw talent that has kept MGMT afloat through 2008. Long may it do so.", Ranked #31 in Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums of 2008 -- "It's Acid Rock for Realists.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "A collection of ambitiously stitched-together genres, all massaged into punchy cohesion by Flaming Lips producer Dave Fridmann. It's a bold debut.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "There are hints of Joy Division and Sixties nostalgia both acid-tinged and bluesy, but ORACULAR SPECTACULAR's playfulness and remarkable density are best displayed on 'Electric Feel'..."
Additional InformationProducer extraordinaire Dave Fridmann polishes MGMT's catchy psychedelic and indie electro-pop songs to a shiny sonic gleam on the Brooklyn duo's major-label debut.
