If you are any kind of fan of MGMT, you should know that their new album, Congratulations, comes out on the 13th of April. However, last week, the album was leaked. So the band decided to let people listen to the entire thing on their website.
[QUOTE]Hey everybody, the album leaked, and we wanted you to be able to hear it from us. We wanted to offer it as a free download but that didn't make sense to anyone but us[/QUOTE]

Woah, They are seriously awesome for doing this...
Massive respect for MGMT.
I agree 100%. It's a shame that it had to be leaked only 3 weeks from release, but I'm confident all of the real fans will buy the CD when it comes out.
What's even more awesome is that they said they wanted to release it as a free download. Of course, Sony wouldn't let them do that. But the fact that they just wanted to give it away, especially so close to release, proves that they really don't give a shit about the money.

Yeah, I noticed it was really long the first time I listened to it. But I still like it. Their song "Metanoia" is actually just under 14 minutes, but it is amazing.

vampire weekend did this with their latest album too i think that's where MGMT got the idea
lots of bands have been doing this lately
Oh god I'm mad I missed it. Can't wait to get the album.
I grabbed the leak.
Finding the album boring.
I'm gonna have to pick up this album sometime.
Cannot wait to listen to this, I've been super-psyched for a while now. Flash Delirium just made me more excited.
Anyone give it a full listen yet?
's been up since the weekend
It's alright; it's a different direction, I'll probably buy it as it seems like it'll be a grower but it really doesn't get much better than flash delerium

Why didn't you just listen to it LEGALLY on their website if you weren't even sure if you would like it?
Mp3 Player, the ability to pause

Flash Delirium itself took a bit to grow on me personally, I'm sure these'll be the same.
Siberian Breaks is awesome though.

It's very similar to Metanoia but it's still great.

To spite MGMT fans.
Nah I found the leak before I knew they were streaming it.

Oh ok. Sorry I didn't think about that. Actually I didn't have a problem with the cover, it definitely deserves some points for originality.
