Definitely not a jam band, albeit Congrats was the closest thing to a Jam Band album they ever came. Metanoia being their one explicitly jammy track-- Much moreso than Siberian Breaks imo, with the psych-rock and psych-pop flourishes being the 1 consistency [as of Jan 2025] spanning their creative output.
@@kim86gurl Agreed. But I meant live. During the Congratulations tour cycle, these extended jams versions of songs were a constant in all their sets. The Handshake here and at Glastonbury 2010 are phenomenal. For Brian Eno, they would always switch up that little jazzy part in the middle and go bonkers for the outro (2010 SNL performance is probably my favourite version of the song). Song For Dan Treacy would have all this crazy guitar work added when done live and the outro to Siberian Breaks would be this gargantuan jam to peter it out.
I dunno why, but this video creates a kinda 'beatles on the roof' moment for me. It is my favourite MGMT track. So much in this song we can learn from, Little girl.
Hey the end is the chorus of the song Burst by the band Magazine! Keep your silence to yourself You will forget yourself Keep your silence to yourself You will forget yourself
This version of handshake is insane!!! the part at 6:50 and onwards is incredible. I was familiar with the song, but never knew this long version existed. I was blown away when they kept going. It felt like finding a secret track on a CD back in the day. Like the first time I heard Papa Roach's Tightrope (secret song)
I discovered them today and I have been going....mmm David bowie here...here Royksop...here Placebo...here Franz Ferdinand...mmmmm None of all those, they have their own style completely.
The end jam is like a marching band towards the apocalypse cuz they got the handshake when they sign the deal. Let's hope the juice was worth the squeeze boys
LalaLunaa♥ I'm falling in love with them all over again. Man this was where its at back in the day. And this has gotta be the best recording of it. Period. 💜james💜 u heard LDA yet?
where does thhis radio station exist?????????!?!?!!?!?!?!!?! cali sucks for not having this radio station dont believe what youre told people california aint so great hahahaha jk
Congratulations-era MGMT really was one of the greatest jam bands of all time.
Too true.

that fucking whistle solo.....legendary!
That solo is fucking incredible
I wish it was recorded like this. Im glad someone uploaded it back up. Thanks!!

the recording is perfect dude. SO is this. But perfection is relative because the actual thing, perfection, doesn't actually exist.

I’ve been coming to listen to different versions of this video for the last 8 years. Only to listen to that sweet sweet Magazine solo

That we got the handshake part sounds so much like the doors it’s awesome
I think that’s why I love it so much

Very Pink Floydish
I've always told people that mgmt share some similarities with pf...especially live
Это восхитительно 🎶, как же это круто 🤟
I discovered them today and I have been going....mmm David bowie here...here Royksop...here Placebo...here Franz Ferdinand...mmmmm

Saw this back when this came out damn I wish I saw them on tour, this line up was bad ass
These lyrics are something
Sick as fuck. What a band!
My all time favorite indie band, saw them live at the Ryman in Nashville and it was an unforgettable experience… amazing group of musicians

It just shows the quality of the band if you hear them totally pure
im manifesting seeing them live
May! California!
did it work? lmao
Live at Pompeii vibes
I fucking love MGMT. Seen them a handful of times. While I wish they were more active, maybe thats what attracts me to want more.
andrew announced that they're releasing a new album in 2023
Love this song...so good!
Magazine Burst! Keep your silence to yourself, and you will forget yourself
