New MGMT album for June release

The forthcoming new MGMT album is reportedly set for a June release. The follow-up to Congratulations has been recorded over the past year in a cabin in Buffalo, New York. Rolling Stone claims that Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser's third album will be "even weirder" than their last. "We're not trying to make music that everyone understands the first time they hear it," explains Goldwasser of the album, which has been inspired by Aphex Twin and house music.
