Achtung Glass!

MGMT release 'Congratulations' on 12th April. In the meantime, the album can be streamed from HERE

Its produced by Pete Kember (Sonic Boom/Spacemen 3) and we are all in agreement that it is awesome. Nine songs long and very different from their first record, much less obvious single wise...they'll probably end up getting dropped or something

Think the streaming comes down in 12 hours time so go listen now

Positive Thinking...

Send me through the air with a sawn off shotgun, i wont have the chance to complain, nothing's gonna happen, please don't worry sit back enjoy the decay, laying on the floor again whispering, saying i should take all of the blame, i'm sorry for being so negative, but there is no good in me, i'll go along with you, i hope to god it's true, push me off the edge i wont try to stop you, i'm already leaning that way, hopefully the concrete will swallow me, i dont want to just break my neck, rolling on the carpet whistling, screaming theres nothing left i can take, i'm happy, really, ideal, but i'm disintergrating into thin air, thank her then shut it out, thank her then shut her out, i'm ok, i'm ok, i think.

Sunday Morning

We wrote a song last night which apparently sounds Velvet Underground-esque..nice...its a shame we dont come from New York, instead we have to walk around with the tag that we are from Reading, not the one in Pennsylvania, the one which sits alongside the M4.

We are all eagerly anticipating the new album from The National released 11th May.

Last week they played the first track on the album live on the Jimmy Fallon show...
And it is amazing:



Enjoy

Positive Thinking

We need to work out exactly what we are doing with them, what we do all agree on thus far is that we should release something soon.

Anyone who is/has played in a 'band' will understand this..No.1 rule of being in a band....don't tell anyone. It will only bring you grief and embarrasment. No. Im not going to be 'rich and famous'...or 'play on top of the pops'...or do i care about your friend's band who are influenced by Kings of Leon and Red Hot Chilli Peppers and who have just signed 'A Record Deal'......

Love from the shameful motherfuckers who also have a 'myspace' and a 'facebook' and a 'twitter' and now a 'blog'
