One fantastic, towering prog rock epic and five passable rock songs.

Half these songs are bangers, the other half are acoustic snorefests with good lyrics

If you don't like this idk what to tell you

Maybe my favorite album.

Futurism should've been on this album

bangs

i mean come on

how you gonna not like this song

ladadada dadaduh ladadauhduh

Almost prefer this to the first.

I forgot how this song went before I even finished it.

Best track on the album. That riff is killer. Could've done without the painfully stupid lyrics and drawn-out song structure, though.

One of the best metal songs I've ever heard. Astonishingly good.

At least they tried.

This record has some great tracks, fun riffs, and catchy tunes, but it's marred by two HUGE flaws: the production and the sheer length of it all.

Brian Eno is a JAM

My favorite MGMT album

Favorites: The Youth, Kids, 4th Dimensional Transition, Of Moods Bird & Monsters
