- Watch AMBY's exclusive interview with MGMT! It's such an exciting time to be a fan of electronic-rock duo MGMT as their latest record release Little Dark Age is officially out. Ahead of their performance in Toronto, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the band's very own Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser to learn more about the record. Dive into the conversation as we discuss phone creatures, why gum isn't allowed in the band, and their pet peeves.

I just always wonder how random and crazy Andrews and Bens conversations are when they are by themselves 😂
I feel like Ben constantly looks at Andrew because he’s is trying to find comfort and solidity while he’s talking. It’s similar to when you present in front of your peers.
I like it too. It is endearing. They’re very awkward guys sometimes.
1:20 andrew was internally thinking how to hold the microphone and it’s so cute to watch hahahah
The interviewer is really good at creating a comfortable environment and asks really good questions without being sterile. She's also very beautiful. Love these guys, great video.
Totally. This has been a pretty nice interview, bc the girl knew how to handle their sense of humor idk
Andrew's laugh at 9:33 is what dreams are made of.
oh my god I love him
YAAAAAAAAAAAAS ❤
I'm exploding into sunshine and clouds
Andrew finally looks like 25 years old, oh wait he's 35 in here. He always looks 10yrs younger on his age.
literally now hes 41 and you could tell me he's only 31
“We should make more music though, and more quickly.”
I can’t believe Andrew just read into my exact thoughts. We love you Andrew and Ben, Little Dark Age is a fantastic album, please keep your amazing work up. Do not slack for us.
FRF'18 OFFICIAL
Andrew is so adorable I wish he was mine
and i wish ben was mine
so say we all
Omg
It's _crazy_ how much time Ben spends looking at Andrew. He's _always_ done that. Andrew usually either looks the person in the eye who's talking...or stares off into the distance just thinking and wondering and taking in whatever is being said.
But Ben seems to constantly check in with Andrew on some level. I kinda don't blame him...Andrew is a super attractive _and_ interesting person...kinda hard to not just watch him. But I also think it says a lot about how deep their friendship is. It's actually rather nice to see.
andrew's shirt says it all
From what I can tell from watching all of their interviews, Ben has to always check with and look at Andrew to see if he is going to troll the interviewer or start like a silly bit or tangent or if he is being straight up serious when addressing a question or person.
It depends on confidence
yes!
I sometimes feel like almost everyone in the band does it, and I think it's because Andrew has this *thing* where he's both good to listen to and to look at and just UGH
mgmt and tame impala would be awesome together
They toured together in 2010
hell yeah
I love that Andrew is cute even when it looks like he just rolled out of bed lol
He 36
Big Boi Chicken Strips and?
@@moneywizard05 36 isn't old. My husband is 34 and is very hot.
@@nolimit6377 dammmnn girl 👏
Yeah, but have you seen Ben?
I agree with Ben about hot sleeping
Damn hot sleeping. I turn my heater on because it's cold then I get hot and want to die
😂😂😂
"i hate humans sometimes" "that's why i left new york"
Andrew is the chaotic friend that's seemingly permanently snickering at something and Ben is the dude that stays in the group for being chill and easygoing
Huh? Lol
@@bryantrulen7570 I'm wondering, too. I feel like both are pretty much mainly in their head/heart, making music and being creative while occasionally bonding together. I can't imagine them being very social or group-oriented, but maybe I'm wrong. First interview I've seen of them
...These guys legendary
As someone with sensory problems and getting constantly dunked on or made fun of for it by my family, hearing Andrew say he has misophonia and is bothered by some of the same things as me makes me feel 10x better
I heard “she works out too much” was about online dating... but I guess they would’ve said that. I doubt younger generations will drop social media. Man,These guys don’t act like rich rockstars. Come back to Minneapolis again soon!
They fr still 22
A Day of NO internet?!? That sounds Wonderful.
You're on the internet
They're so awkwardly adorable 😂 I love them
ME AND MIIICHHAEEEELLLLLL
Wow I'll die for Andrew
Weirdo
@@missourigal333 no u
oh man i also suffer from misophonia. snoring and chewing and even the clinks of cutlery... i just want to destroy everything.
so, im guessing ASMR is out of the question?
this is painfully awkward but that's why they're my favorite band
Ben keeps looking toward his bandmmate for social comfort / relate /
Ben just got married! I forgive him, but it still hurts 😢💜
This was a great interview! It bugs me though when people say the album was weird. I don't understand what is weird about it lol
I believe that "no phone day" Ben was talking about is called "nyepi". It's more than just a "no phone day" is more like a "no electricity day" for religious reason.
8:05 - 9:33 omg I love their brains
They seem like great people to get lost in long conversations with.
liv you're gorgeous
She doesn't look at Ben
MGMT have made great music.
These boys look British, esp. Andrew
She is a great interviewer.! and seems super nice. Very smooth and funny interview
God, I wish I had a friendship like that. Someone who understood and operated on my level of 'weirdness'. All my 'friends' are only interested in using my talents and backstabbing, apparently. You both are awesome, and together you create some of the coolest music ever. Thank you so much for your music. If there are any jam sessions you care to publish, I'll love to hear it all.
You’re not alone, I hope you got better friends now
ugh love them
I love them both so much
Did andrew just wake up
TSLAMP
Andrew gives me butterflies ugh 😩
S P A C E
These guys look like they sit on their room all day making music and could be big one day
Great interview.
I just love that interviewer
One of my top 10 favorite bands!!!
that's amazing
What a wonderful interviewer!
In the literal best way i could mean this, Andrew sounds NOTHING like i thought he would
love this!!!
MGMpleasekeepreleasinggoodmusicT
shes a good interviewer
Ben
Thank you. this was great
So Andrew hates ASMR 😄
yes
How cute! they are sitting like a good boy😄
I love mgmt. I remember them in 2016
Yeah, we're in there. Yes, on both of our ends we are firmly in there.
Yes!!!!
They are like Ween 2
LOL
I ❤ Andrew
this is everything i needed yesss!
"david bowie is what its all about" damn right ahahah
God I relate so hard when they talk about misophonia. I’m so zen about everything in my environment until someone makes a mouth noise. It’s like every ounce of inner rage I’ve ever had is awakened, and I can not control it well lol.
Also this interview sort of triggered it, I think it’s the vocal fries lol.
Andrew is such a cutie 😍
I
yeah nice interview
Anyone know what that poster with the 70s muscle car (the poster in the middle) is from? I know it from somewhere, but can't put my finger on it.
Woooo!!
MGMT predicted the pandemic with LITTLE DARK AGE
When will the Don Broco interview up?
Cute interviewer
Their interview are hilarious because they are actually insane
I feel you about the misophonia. Gum chewing or any chewing really = instaRAGE for me. But I also have a pretty long list of other triggers.
It would be so great if someone adds the english subtitles to the interview because I don't know english as good as I want but I really want to understand what they are laughing at
You’re not missing out on much.
Да он сказал, что Пол Маккартни старый пердун, как и они, но он не хотел это иметь ввиду и засмущался.
i love how he feels awkward with the weight of that microphone.
Yeaaaaaas
SHE'S BEAUTIFUL. THE INTERVIEWER!!!!
In a generic sort of way, I suppose
I had to subscribe after this
Faith by The Cure, yes!!
andrew looks my music teacher
lol...this was hilarious. About midway through you could tell the interviewer really was kinda into Andrew. Lot's of hair flipping going on.
Then...Andrew seems to take notice...turns his chair toward her. And then she mentions something about talking to Andrew off camera @ 8:13. And then Ben shoots glances at both of them as he realizes oh....I see what's going on.
Kinda amusing/endearing to watch play out. :)
shes crazy hot too. go Andrew!
yes i hope something came up between both
He has a girlfriend
who?
You are so strange, you write as if these people are fantasy characters and this is a fanfiction or something
Interview Leva Bates ♥️
Yo Ben. Do you remember Nick. Or Rob Ives from Oneonta N.Y.?
MGMT#1
Kkkkkkkkkkkk very goooood MGMT !!
anyone think that they are secretly together?
😍😍😍
Yeah let's hope I won't be dead by the next MGMT record. I swear these guys will still die before me, with no new album and release a mew one as soon as we all die
hi! how are you? they've just finished recording a new album
ben looks at andrew too much for confirmation...i don't know...cool guys
Ben is so cute
1:30 It's been 4 years and they still haven't released a new album 😂
U joking? What about 11•11•11!! It's an album
it will be released in february 2024 (do you like their new song?)
he spekas liek billy corgan (the freak in the SPACE shirt)
they are so stoned
MY LITTLE Dark aGE
8:49 does anybody know what he's saying?
bela lugosi's dead
k ttyl Andrew
OMG I want a rider at work! Ban gum!!!
Andrew reminds me of a grown version of Andrew from big mouth lol
Andrew still looks hot in his 30s! Not as much a baby face but close
I almost subscribed because the girl is so pretty
beauty privilege is such a strange thing
A musician w misophonia. I’m like that too. I’m pretty particular about sounds in general but the sound of bass through walls makes me really mad and two songs playing at the same time is horrible too. I think might just be normal though cos these sounds really do suck. They just drive me crazy though. I get enraged sometimes. Blahhhh blah blah.
