From this year's Narrow Stairs Album. These Seattle Songsters get better and better.

Still works its magic… timeless

5. 'Kids' – MGMT
'Oracular Spectacular' is one of the albums of 2008, eclectic, brainy pop with heavy psychedelic overtones.

Preppy, well-read, indie, rock with joyful Afro-pop-inspired melodies and rhythms… Revenge of the Nerds?

If Carlsberg did bands…

From the 2003 album 'Give it Up' 4:26 minutes of perfection.

Sixteen years later, and youthful rebellion still doesn't get better than this... F*** You! If you don't agree.

Monty plays his lethal mix of old and new rock and roll and dirty beats late night in the Róisín Dubh every Wednesday (After the Laughter Lounge). He also hosts KARIBU with a section of lazy hazy world music vibes in the Blue Note every Tuesday.
