MGMT have released a new album “Loss of Life” It’s their first studio album since 2018’s “Little Dark Age”. The bands Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser co-produced the new LP with Patrick Wimberly, while long time collaborator Dave Fridmann mixed the record.
The 10-track “Loss of Life” includes singles “Mother Nature,” “Bubblegum Dog,” “Nothing to Declare,” and the Christine and the Queens–featuring “Dancing in Babylon.” In a light hearted statement about their new album, VanWyngarden and Goldwasser said that “musically speaking, we are running at around 20% adult contemporary and no more than this, please.”
This dynamic push-and-pull has resulted in five unique studio albums so far—including this most recent endeavor, “Loss of Life”. “The songs that make it to an MGMT album, they’re the only things that Ben and I both feel the same way about,” VanWyngarden says. “There’s not many things that make it through that threshold in the end. It’s really just about what we both are feeling and believing in at that moment, more than any sort of stylistic intention.”
