Anybody into them?

I haven't listened to any of the records, but I have seen them several times at festivals.   Just saw them again this weekend at FYF in L.A. ........ great live band with great songs!

    Their first album is great, second is ok, and then, for me at least, unlistenable. But I'm sure live they put on a good show

    i think there was probably a thread or two for them.  I loved their first album, "Time to Pretend" got me hooked on them and was my favorite song that year.  saw them open up for Yeasayer and they were great live.  Even did a Led Zeppelin cover :lol: Got the "set lsit (which was a drawing of a bird) and some MGMT shoelaces someone was handing out.  Saw them headline a few months later and they were good but I could tell they were gonna get huge, kids were dressing like Andrew (with the bandana on his head and all).  Was looking forward to their next album, but unfortunately I just could not get into it.  There were a few songs which I liked but i was disappointed in it overall.  Third album came out, i thought it was better but nothing great.  Haven't listened to that one in years.  I thought they were working on a new album this year.
