“Control yalls selves
take only what yall need from yall.” -the MGMT
So there I was. The party was winding down, but I felt like I still had a chance to get tugged 2nite. I was gonna stay around and keep nursing some beers, maybe nonchalantly working my way on to the impromptu dance floor if the right song came on. Tired of the group of people huddling around a laptop playing mainstream songs and rap songs. I needed some one to play a more obscure indie hit to prove to some one worth tugging me that I listened to alternative music. Then came on a song by a new buzzband called The MGMT – Kids.mp3. It was accessible, fun and danceable. I worked my way on to the dance floor, closed my eyes, and danced.
If my personal brand is strong enough, I have a chance to make tonight meaningful.
Will I get tuggled 2nite?

@andy, The trailer for that shitty looking movie “The Last House on the Left” has like 10 seconds of “Sweet Love for Planet Earth” by Fuck Buttons. It makes me sad.

@Yeah Right Radio,
the original movie is authentic, but the remake is the equivalent of “band selling out”, so there is no place for authentic alt music there (not sure tho if fuck buttons is authentic anymore, any1?)

@lanes, it’s not that we’re trying to be “original” it’s just disappointing when something we love so much is also “loved” by the very same douche bags who don’t appreciate it on the same level and have it amongst Top40 Bogus on their iTuners playlists. also it’s super super super lame because usually once they finally catch on to good songs (ex., the MGMT / M.I.A) the good songs are old as hell. by old as hell i mean 6 months to 1 year. old enough, srsly.

this reminds me of when, in hi-school, the kids who had spent the past 4 yrs teasing me 4 liking Death Cab 4 Cutie and the Bright Eyes started listening 2 DC4C ‘n Bright Eyes. But they couldn’t tease me anymore b/c i was segregated from them due to the fact that i was signed up for 6 AP classes.

Party in vid=not fun. Total of 5-6 ppl 8 max, might as well play board game.
Mainstreamers weren’t supposed to be exposed to MGMT…it’s like a gateway drug..next thing they will be able to accept AnCo.
