El pasado 20 de marzo la banda estadounidense de rock psicodélico, MGMT lanzó su nueva canción “As You Move Through the World”.

Después de cancelar sus conciertos en México y Houston tras la declarada pandemia del COVID-19, el dúo regresa con este nuevo sencillo de siete minutos y treinta y cuatro segundos de duración.

“As You Move Through the World” es un recorrido instrumental y de mezclas que parecería estar un poco fuera de los últimos tonos de la banda, sin embargo se inserta perfectamente dentro del espíritu de experimentación musical que tanto caracteriza a Andrew VanWyngarden y Ben Goldwasser.

“'¡Hola COVIDS, upss, quisimos decir a KIDS!, como todavía estamos molestos de que no los veremos en la gira por el momento, pensamos que vamos a seguir adelante y por eso lanzamos nuestra nueva canción un poco antes… saben que todos necesitamos una pista instrumental ambiental downtempo de 7 minutos y medio para escuchar mientras NO nos movemos por el mundo”, escribió con humor la banda en su cuenta de Instagram.

Hey all you COVIDS- oops, we mean KIDS, Since we're still bummed that we won't be seeing any of you on tour for the time being, we thought we'd go ahead and release our new track, As You Move Through The World, a little early! Everyone knows we all need a 7 and a half minute downtempo ambient instrumental track to listen to while we're NOT moving through the world. Beginning at midnight Pacific time, you'll be able to stream it and purchase the track on Bandcamp too if you want to show us some (contactless) love in these dire times. We'll also be hawking a limited edition T-shirt, so you can look good while you're hanging out at home with your cats. For those of you who pre-ordered ITA vinyl, you'll get a digital download of the new track, and we're still on track to ship out your vinyl by the end of March, barring any further apocalyptic scenarios. By popular demand, we're also re-opening sales for the limited edition ITA vinyl and t-shirt. Mexico & Houston we'll get to you, we promise! We're actively working on rescheduling those shows and you'll be hearing from us very soon. You can get the most up-to-date info by signing up for our mailing list. You can find everything you need to listen/buy/sign-up at the link in our bio. Stay healthy everyone, and don't forget to spritz your mitts! love, MGMT
