The Never-Before-Released 14 Minute B-Side Available On Limited Edition 10" Etched Vinyl! MGMT is Andrew Vanwyngarden and Ben Goldwasser, two psychic pilgrims whose paths first intersected in the green pastures of Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, circa 2002. The pair was drawn to the music of other duos and found themselves incorporating the implications of the hallucinatory power-twee of the Incredible String Band, the roaring subway minimalist electronica of Suicide, the silky pop-soul of Hall & Oates, the pulsing narcotic trance of Spacemen 3, the avant-garde industrial romanticism of Royal Trux and much more into the constantly evolving sounds of MGMT.

Reviews:

Staying true to MGMT awesomeness, Metanoia is a reference to a Carl Jung psychological theory (metanoia denotes a process of reforming the psyche as a form of self healing, a proposed explanation for the phenomenon of psychotic breakdown. Here, metanoia is viewed as a potentially productive process). oh, how i love wikipedia.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metanoia
 
"metanoia reshaping the world....oohhh ohhh...it will shape you and reprogram you..."
