MGMT confirm their fourth album, due out this year, will be titled “Little Dark Age.”
Watch the band live debut five songs on May 5, 2017 at their first show since 2014:
“James,” “Me And Michael,” “When You Die,” a cover of Q Lazzarus’ “Goodbye Horses” and the new album’s title-track.
Bassman on Jason Pierce and Sonic Boom working together after decades of not even speaking to each other:
“Jason is a great musician and deserves respect for his achievements. He is a nice guy. I do not think he enjoys contention or conflict so I think he has decided to become involved with some reservation but for the right reasons.”
“If litigation is inevitable this will mean that Sonic and Jason will have to continue to work together, perhaps this may provide the means for both of them to resolve any differences and establish better relations.”
May 8, 2017 will officially be “Grateful Dead Day” in Ithaca, marking the 40th anniversary of the band’s most hallowed show.
