Earlier this week, MGMT debuted the first single from their hotly anticipated Oracular Spectacular follow-up, Congratulations. It would not be an overstatement to say that “Flash Delirium” was welcomed by a flurry of mixed reactions by fans (personally, I thought it was great).

Well, the album’s title track, “Congratulations” has leaked, and you can listen to it too now (and download it, if you’re sneaky). If you weren’t big on “Flash Delirium”, you probably won’t be into “Congratulations”, but I can’t see why that would be the case. Listen to the track below, and pre-order Congratulations at Insound.

STREAM: MGMT “Congratulations”

Congratulations is out April 13th on Columbia.

I really liked both this and Flash Delirium!
Though I disagree with the statement “If you weren’t big on “Flash Delirium”, you probably won’t be into “Congratulations”” I think “Congratulations” is more accessible than “Flash Delirium.”
