MGMT- My Obsession.

Alright. Everybody in their life has had that one crush that becomes borderline creepy. I know it for a fact, becauuse every time I flip past the Disney Channel, I see thousands of obsessed girls screaming "Nick, Joe- I love you!" Or "marry me or I'll kill myself!!". Sometimes I wish they would do everyone the favor and go through with the threat. Anyways, MGMT is this band, consisting of 2 Weslayn graduates, Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser. The fact that I could spell those with out looking it up is creepy enough. But to toe the line on stalker, I became a fan of them on Facebook, set my computer background as Andrew VanWyngarden playing the guitar, and bought their entire album on iTunes. I fear I'm emulating the Jonas Groupies. The Jonas Groupies are thoses obsessed girls that go to every concert, own T-Shirts with the "JoBros" faces on them, and cry whenever they sing their sappy wannabe rock ballads and love songs. Gag me. But MGMT is different. There music is not some Disney Channel, cookie-cutter, music. It's interesting. They combine eightie's sound with this deadpan delivery that makes it so 20th century.
