If awards could be given out for the most annoying
introduction to a song then MGMT would win it hands
down for the introduction to their new single 'Kids',
the song features a noisy bunch of kids screaming
and shouting and pretty much getting over excited
in the school playground, luckily the annoyingness
only lasts for about 15 seconds and then the song
branches off into a beautiful piece of electronic
pop music, the style that you could waste a whole
night dancing along to at your local club, in fact
the first 5 - 10 seconds of music during the song
has a bit of Chinese style sounding vibe and I really
like it. 'Kids' is my favourite song I have heard
from MGMT so far, even the remix of the track is
well worth a listen. I am almost tempted to go out
and get their new album 'Oracular Spectacular'.
Everyone remembers MGMT from their song 'Time To
Pretend' being played during the last few minutes
of the end of the second series of Skins earlier
this year, they then went on to release 'Electric
Feel' which became a hit in the UK top 40 singles
chart, they are now back with 'Kids' and the song
is a real gem, if only you could erase the first
10 seconds of the song and the random kids screaming
that pops up towards the end of the song it would
be pretty much a perfect track.
3.5/5
