Sorry, no link, but here is some news

Pitchfork Wrote:
As reported by the San Francisco Examiner (via NME) and confirmed by their label, MGMT's new album is called Congratulations. Whether the title turns out to be generous or pompous, we'll just have to wait and see.

In fact, there are very few nailed-down details when it comes to the record, except for the fact that it's due out sometime next year. The Examiner piece revealed that the duo is recording in Malibu and Spacemen 3's Peter "Sonic Boom" Kember is handling production duties, while Jennifer Herrema of Royal Trux/RTX is set to provide some guest vocals.

I was really disappointed by them live at Bonnaroo, but am still looking forward to the album. I think I like the production choice.

Yeah Tommy, they blow live. No energy and they always look like they don't want to be there, but their debut was good enough where I want to hear the recording output again, especially if Sonic Boom is producing.

I liked the debut. I' m interested to see what they do next. That remix thing on the radio is atrocious though.

I tried to find somebody of that sort that I could like that nobody else did - because everybody would adopt his group, and his group would be _it_; someone weird like Captain Beefheart. It's no different now - people trying to outdo ! each other in extremes. There are people who like X, and there are people who say X are wimps; they like Black Flag.

Saw them open up for Beck and they were barely going through the motions. I've enjoyed their debut, but I'm not sure they will be sticking around for many more years.

I had a bad feeling that they'd go down the boring electro / empire of the sun route.

This is good news.

Excited to hear it.

Electric Feel is one of the greatest songs of the past few years, even if it has been overplayed to the point of comedy.
