MGMT, aka The Management, is a fresh sound from NYC. I like 3 or 4 songs from this album and look forward to the next.
They have been recently working on a new one called Congratulations expected to be released in Spring 2010.

This was a commonly played song at our fraternity parties and always got the crowd moving. I saw them at the Visage in Orlando and it was a freaky evening - kinda like the video.
See you at the Masquerade.

This song is the backbone of New Order and of my alternative music. Close your eyes and let it take you on a journey.

'Ahead' captures the essence of this site. It's rhythmic, smooth and enigmatic. This one rates as one of my all time 80's favorites.
Album: Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)
Released: 1983
Theme: dreamy
I find this song to be intense and romantic and a little dark and it gives me chills.
Strangely, it was initially a commercial flop then later became a worldwide hit when it re-entered the chart following their commercial breakthrough with "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This).
'And love, love, love is a dangerous drug . . .'
