Haha, the only one. They're the most overrated piece of shit band since ... well, I'd say Radiohead, but rabid fans would maul me.
Really, though, I find them atrocious and I don't get the hype at all. The only good thing about them is that the singer looks good with his shirt off.

I don't get it either. They're so mediocre.
The fluffy one is kind of cute, though.

I'd agree with you, Radiohead ARE overrated but since your post indicates they're bad, too...
I actually really really thought about going to see MGMT live because of their opening band. I guess MGMT would have been okay but I had absolutely no desire to see their crowd.

What makes you think we're 30, just because we've got an opinion and try to type properly?
If you're really 21 like it says on your myspace then you're older than both of us. Not that it matters.

no... i'm fourteen. and no. i just got aggravated because of the whole "only one." thing. and i really dont care if you like them or not because i say the same exact thing with other bands i dont like... and this is a vines forum so none of this matters.

1. glad to see I'm not the only one on this forum who is quite young (15)
2. glad to see I'm not the only one on this forum who likes MGMT! i think Oracular Spectacular is an ace album aswell, all the songs on there are really good and theres not one that I hate. although I don't know if they will live up to the hype(regarding the 2nd album, if they make one). I basically only know about them because they have been in about every single issue of NME since the start of the year and finally got sick of the raving and checked out some of thier music.
p.s. does it really matter if you can spell or use correct grammar? its a post on a public forum, not an english essay. as long as its readable then I'm happy.

Come on now, guys. Give tymaster1969 a break.

Not everyone can like all of the same bands. Everyone here has probably seen someone mention a band they can't stand, but what's the point in putting the person who likes them down?
We're all here for one common interest, the Vines
Why scrutinize people for what bands they like when they already have taste enough to like the Vines? x D
I haven't heard much of them (MGMT), personally. So I don't have an opinion on their music, but they aren't horrible from what I've heard

Their music videos I've seen are really cool though. They have such a nice 'feel' to them ^-^

That's real weird, I'd like to know/read if it's available where you got that from. I'd be interested in what the similarities they see are. The only I could think of is that they both use out there sounds from time to time.
I love MGMT, I think they're great.
