MGMT travel back to the ’90s in new video for ‘Bubblegum Dog’

MGMT have shared a ’90s-themed video for their new single ‘Bubblegum Dog’.The track is the second single to be taken from the duo’s recently announced fifth album ‘Loss Of Life’, which will land on February 23, 2024 via Mom + Pop. You can pre-order/pre-save it here.The video finds MGMT’s Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser paying tribute to numerous scenes from classic ‘90s alternative videos.“We all saw the video for ‘Bubblegum Dog’ as an opportunity to combine the charming, DIY, surreal, cardboard craft aesthetic of shows like Yo Gabba Gabba and The Mighty Boosh with these ultra-serious grunge videos we grew up watching on MTV – all that heavy, brooding angst smashed up against absurd childlike fun,” said the video’s directors Julia Vickerman and Tom Scharpling.“Ben and Andrew are legitimately funny guys, so we were excited they got to really go for it with their acting, paying homage to the eternally moody mid-90’s rock stars they looked up to when they were kids,” they continued “They were completely game for everything, playing around with different wigs/costumes/personas/facial hair and continually chiming in with new ideas along the way.“That was a wonderful feeling, because it let us know they were having a good time.

Watch Bat For Lashes debut songs from new album ‘The Dream Of Delphi’
Bat For Lashes debuted songs from new album ‘The Dream Of Delphi’ at her Nottingham gig on Monday (June 12).Natasha Khan opened with three currently unnamed new songs from the forthcoming album (via setlist.fm), before going on to perform tracks including ‘Daniel’, ‘What’s A Girl To Do?’ and ‘Laura’.Back in August, the singer said the follow-up to 2019’s ‘Lost Girls’ was “almost ready” and that she had “recorded the final song”.You can check out clips of the songs below.Speaking at Christine And The Queens‘ Meltdown Festival for a behind the scenes interview, Khan explained how embodiment and embracing physical landscapes was key to her creativity in creating the album and her accompanying show.She started the album in the middle of lockdown when she was breastfeeding her daughter, Delphi, when she would spend windows of time improvising in the studio.“There’s definitely spontaneity and a meditative quality to the music,” she explained, “because it was just my emotion coming through into my hands and out into the musical instruments I chose that day.”She continued: “[The album] is about the conception and growing and birthing of this human being onto planet earth, and sort of the cosmic resonance of that, and the deep animalistic, raw aspects of being a mother, and I’m sort of bowing at the feet of this miraculous event.”The singer also performed in Leeds this month along with her sold out Meltdown show tonight (June 15).“For fans who want to see the new material up close, these are not ones to be missed,” she shared on social media.Her next live performance will be at new concert series On The Mount on July 2 where Sigur Rós, Primal Scream and Gabriels will perform throughout the multi-day event.
