MGMT Confirm New Album Out This Year, Playing New Music on Tour

MGMT have announced they will release a new album this year. The follow-up to their 2013 self-titled LP does not yet have a release date, but the band promises to perform new music while on tour this year. “Incredibly soon we will get back up on the horse of live music in Memphis,” MGMT said in an email newsletter to fans. “And from atop this great horse we will play old songs and new songs. New songs from our new album that you will newly hear this year!” Find their tour dates here.

The duo have announced a handful of shows this year, including festival appearances at Panorama, Hangout, FYF, and Osheaga. Last year, the duo paid tribute to the late Alan Vega with a cover of “Goodbye Darling.” They also appeared on the Flaming Lips’ guest-filled Sgt. Pepper’s tribute album.
