Like Led Zeppelin and the Manics before them, MGMT are releasing their new album without the aid of any singles. But will this make fans judge their music differently?
"We'd rather people hear the whole album as an album and see what tracks jump out rather than the ones that get played on the radio – if anything gets played on the radio!"
That was what Ben Goldwasser of MGMT told NME, explaining why his band are planning to not release a single, er, single from their new album, Celebration.
In a statement that might not have been music to the ears of Sony BMG executives, he added: "There definitely isn't a Time to Pretend or a Kids on the album." It certainly sounds like it will be a far cry from their first effort, which the Guardian's Jude Rogers described as "so radio-friendly it's practically kissing your aerial".
