MGMT Are Sorry About “Flash Delirium,” Thought It Was Funny
Is MGMT ‘letting every1 down’?
I know I was pretty cranky yesterday re: this new MGMT situation, but, apparently, the band apologized on Spinner for their clusterfark, “Flash Delirium,” admitting that it was more of a joke at first than a serious single for Congratulations.
“When we first wrote that song, we were laughing so hard,” MGMT’s Ben Goldwasser tells Spinner. “Andrew [VanWyngarden] just reminded me of that — that we thought it was the funniest thing we’d ever heard. And then we got used to it, it started to sound more normal. It’s not a single, but we thought it was a good way to entice people to listen to the whole record. I’m sure there are plenty of people who think it’s completely weird and not what they were expecting. I’m sorry.”
I’m sorry, too. Even though you should also issue a formal apology for that viral video that came out yesterday, you guys just bought yourselves another week. Make it up to me. (HR)
