VIEWFINDER: MGMT – KIDS

by Amber on July 24, 2009 in Notebook

I went to see MGMT play last night, the last of three Auckland shows. Finally, live in front of my very own eyes (gratuitous pics of me at the concert). The concert itself was so-so… there was some interesting Tropicana infused instrumentals. But when the boys from New York played their single Kids, they killed it. Amazing. Yeah, I was that giddy girl squirming behind you and singing along.

The video is brilliant too – it moves from a ‘real’ exploration of a child’s imaginary monsters to an acid inspired animation. I really like it. Especially the TV shows… Scary stuff.

That shit is scary, yo! I’ve only ever seen the fake-out fan videos on youtube … this one honestly feeds on all of my actual childhood fears. Creepy and brilliant.
