MGMT has to be my favorite, weirdest band of the year so far. I just don't see how its possible to beat them out on the bizarre things that go on around them.
Their latest video "Electric Feel", which has the best groove out of any on the album, features ridiculousness such as that Chuck-E-Cheese bear (2:17 is the moment of zen), glowing ooze, motorcycles blowing up the moon and lots of other things that fit with this song.
Of course, all of this craziness wouldn't have happened without the Internet hype, since this video looks a little better funded than their first one, which is similar to the 3-D "Time To Pretend" video, but nowhere near as fun to watch. If you want to try and find something even weirder, check out their "Kids" video. I'm still trying to figure out the meaning behind the words in that song.
