Brooklyn duo MGMT will be winging their way over to these shores in September for a few dates in England, Scotland and Ireland in what would commonly be known as a tour. They'll be headlining, too, on the back of their by-then-released 'sophomore' effort in Congratulations. Yeah, the one with the wacky cover art.
If you've heard the new record and like it, then you'll be pleased to know these tickets are on sale via the band's website/mailing list from 7-9 April, and on general sale from April 9 at 9AM.
Dates below:
September: 16 - Dublin, Olympia 20 - Glasgow, Barrowlands 23 - Birmingham, O2 Academy 24 - Bournemouth, O2 Academy 26 - Manchester, Apollo 29 - London, Brixton O2 Academy 30 - London, Brixton O2 Academy
Congratulations is released on April 12, just over a week away. On Monday they released a video for 'Flash Delirium', which I've handily embedded below for you.
