If this record was released by an unknown group called MGNT or MGNR, the album would have been consumed in a completely different way. It's much more rock and roll and pulls from old psych-pop and maybe some geek rock from the 80s. Congratulations isn't the wonder-child album that Oracular Spectacular is. Ad-men and suburban teenagers everywhere moved on to tow-headed teen boys that sing like Stevie Wonder. Instead, MGMT put out a record with no singles, no electro-pop, and nothing that sounds like the two songs that everyone knows. Everyone was salivating for the next round of pop hits to accompany the kissing scene for their teen vampire show or sell their Bar-B-Que sauce or to play in the background to convince the young kids that they are still hip.

The point is that MGMT was one-hot-hit-making machine. (This happened as he was trying to pass a law to deny Internet access to file-sharers) French President Nicolas Sarkozy illegally puts Kids in some of his videos and played it at rallies and had to copyright infringement. Kids and Time to Pretend showed up not only in every hipster's party mix, but in teen dramas like Gossip Girl, clothing store soundtracks, and commercials. With a handful of singles, MGMT permeated pop culture in 2008-09. MGMT helped usher in a wave of good and not-so-good electro-pop. Oh how the mighty fall, well at least stumble.
