The guy in MGMT is weird

Just saw these pix of the guy in MGMT.
I think it’s important to talk about people with weird personal brands.

I don’t hold it against them for being weird, but I just think it’s okay to talk about them seeming weird bc that’s who they are, and they have learned to accept it & capitalize off it. Kind of like that guy in Of Montreal and that <a href=”
http://www.hipsterrunoff.com/2007/11/crazy-dudes-with-beards-vol-1.html”>Devendra Barharty guy.

He has a good body. Maybe his record label can encourage him to transition into a ’sex symbol’, and convert their music to the meaningful-core genre. He will probably just end up growing a ‘crazy person beard’ for their next album.

I don’t think he’s from an underworld. Probably just the same place that NELL was from. You know, that Jodie Foster movie where she has lived in the wilderness, and made up her own language, and eventually taught mainstream society that it is okay to be an alt-weirdo.

Or maybe he is from the same village as the bros in Apocalypto.


but srsly. is that a gang symbol? Is there any1 who know what this means, and can find a way to overhype why it is offensive? Like, ‘this is the war paint of a tribe that held AZNs hostage in internment/death camps during World War II.’

    that body paint is actually part of the advert campaign for the 3 sided DVD/HD-DVD/Blu-Ray Disc release of the film 21, which MGMT’s song “Electric Eel” was on the soundtrack. The movie feats Kevin Spacey (best known 4 his work as Hopper in the movie “A Bug’s Live”) as an alt-muslim extremist impersonating a professor @ Virginia Tech who recruits a bunch of alt-mathletes and trains them 2 break into the vault shared by the largest casinos in LV

    MGMT is absolute shit. theyre not an “indie” band despite the fact that they deliberately try to pose as one by opening for every band on the planet. their music is unbelievably bland and horrid, and theyre all absolutely disgusting looking hippie wannabes. this neo hippie bullshit is absolutely disgusting. why the fuck do people want to look like their tasteless hypocrite grandparents. i cant wait for the next hippie backlash, maybe well get a new no wave or something

    Wes, regardless of whether you like mgmt or not, try not to spew out your senseless and inane drivel onto this comment board. How about trying to back up claims with relevant information? How about not trying to boost your sense of self worth by claiming that other people aren’t genuine? Do you know them? Probably not. Do you know anything about music, I mean, actually know stuff about music? Probably not. So please, think about the thoughts you’re going to vomit out before you vomit them
    p.s. I’m not trying to say mgmt is good or bad.

    so i was backstage at some show or festival or whatever and there was some white guys and I had a pretty big cup of grey goose and mountain dew.

    and I was like hey want some grey goose and mountain dew?
    Obv. i meant like a sip and mostly just said it to brag that I had it.

    And then the dude like took fucking half the cup which was NOT CHILL i had to go ask pennywise for more GG right after.

    So I figured they were like “somebody” or something and i was like do you play in a band or soemthing.

    Yeah they were like I play ____ in MGMT and someone was like yeah and trying really hard on purpose to act weird. I was like whatever you guys are leaving give me your fucking artist badge so I can go fuck around and get more free b00ze and shit. one dude said yes and gave it to me.

    so i guess like,
    MGMT:
    -2
    +1
    ??

    FYI, these pics were taken to illustrate a magazine article and the body paint and pants and props were part of the shoot. Andrew is a good guy and MGMT’s music is supreemo.
