Ben Goldwasser and Andrew VanWyngarden make up the band MGMT. They started at Wesleyan University and have toured with Of Montreal. Nylon Mag writes: "It wasn't all work—"we had a great time taking LSD in Los Angeles although we didn't talk to any celebrities or end up swimming at a mansion"—but, in the end, the time was certainly productive: Columbia scooped the boys from Cantora (an independent label that NYU students, early MGMT fans, formed to release the band's 2005 EP Time To Pretend) and signed them to a six-figure, four-album deal. The result: Oracular Spectacular, their sure-to-be-a-hit debut out now on iTunes and in stores January 22 from Flaming Lips' producer Dave Fridmann." They have an interactive music video for their song Electric Feel. Watch a screen capture of it now:
