Tracks
MGMT's Little Dark Age is the band's fourth studio album, released in February 2018. It marked their return after a five-year hiatus following their self-titled third album in 2013.
The album explores themes of anxiety, disillusionment, and the pervasiveness of technology in the modern world. It's a departure from the psychedelic pop sound of their earlier work, incorporating elements of synth-pop, gothic rock, and alternative rock.
Little Dark Age was a critical and commercial success, reaching number three on the Billboard 200 chart in the US. The title track, "Little Dark Age," was released as the lead single and became a popular alternative rock song.
The album was influenced by 1980s Soviet synth-pop, according to the band's lead vocalist, Andrew VanWyngarden.
The album was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rock Album in 2019.
