MGMT - Edmonton May 11 @ The Starlite Room

Thu, 16 May 2013 10:21:00 -0400

Indie-synth-pop five-some MGMT sold-out 2 Saturday shows at Edmontons own The Starlite Room. The five-some opened with their popular hit Electric Feel and carried on the night with a couple new songs and another known hit, Time to Pretend. What was missing? Kids....No, not in the audience, but one of their most covered songs from 2008.

Playing a short 60 minute set lit up with a projector with funky patterns casted upon the band, the lead vocalist/guitarist spent little time engaging the audience. With few words between songs and little movement one stage, I wouldn't say this was a rockin' concert. The most action that was had was when a fan jumped on stage to give front man VanWyngarden a hug, only to fall back into a pit of young hipsters.

<h1>I Mother Earth - London April 25, 2013.</h1>
<p>Fri, 26 Apr 2013 11:56:00 -0400</p>
Hey, do you remember the 90�s? You know, grunge, Curt Cobain, the Seattle sound etc etc. In Canada we had our own musical moment that included the likes of Our Lady Peace, Limblifter, Moist, Big Wreck, Big Sugar and the list goes on. Well, I Mother Earth was a mainstay back then and they are back after an 8-year hiatus and it looks like the boys have not lost any of that heavy drive riffage that made them so popular 15 years ago. To be honest, I thought they were long gone but was pleasantly surprised when I learned that they would be touring again, behind a new album and a new single on the radio. (<a href=
