Yesterday was Record Store Day, for which MGMT released their newest single, "Alien Days," on casette! The song starts off a little weirdly, with the vocals of a little child. However, the iconic voice of Andrew VanWyngarden joins in, bringing the familiarity of MGMT's last album, Congratulations, into the song. As it progresses, it starts to sound almost like an alien call, but would I expect anything else from the kings of weird?

Alien Days is the first single off of their upcoming album, set to be released in June.
