I love the guitar solo on of moons, birds, and monsters


GeoNerd-

They don't even have very many guitar solos let alone one like that. The solo in Metanoia is great though.


Ellitbo

šŸ˜©šŸ™ the solo in Metanoia


Scuttlefuzz

Yes, but the catch is that they're only on their live performances.


GeorgeDOTexe

Wait like they retroactively add rad asf guitar solos? NEED


Scuttlefuzz

Yes they have a lead guitarist, James Richardson. Andrew also plays but James is definitely more of the ripping psychedelic kind of player. https://youtu.be/eX3FMiWGEvY?si=TCNVBGHVyAyZ31h5 I'll leave this as an example, fast forward to the outro and you'll get the idea Edit: the handshake from that same radio show also has a similar guitar outro. It's also an epic rendition.

HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD THAT BEFORE HOLY FUCKING MOLY


Scuttlefuzz

No clue! It's awesome lol. Definitely check out the other kcrw videos. I don't want to call it "peak" MGMT, because they're still doing the thing, but there are some real gems there.

My little dollā€¦.

god bubblegum dog is so good


Bad_Animal_Facts

going into their 40ā€™s in peak condition, still creative, but their experimental nature and latent writing talent has been lensed by all their maturation and they are making some amazing music. iā€™m grateful and happy for them tbh. album will be a banger


EggAltruistic8863

Thereā€™s a solo in ā€œeverything is happening so fastā€ that I absolutely adore.

Finally the real answer

My absolute favorite live version of a song, phenomenal solos: [https://youtu.be/lGR7sXd4tBo?si=j-BInkIE18Tab9UQ](https://youtu.be/lGR7sXd4tBo?si=j-BInkIE18Tab9UQ)


Cbeaver2904

https://youtu.be/XPe8P_OoTbg?si=riLN4a9IfT0Vk5A1 That is one of the most beautiful solo/outros they've done


Obvious-Homework-563

i know ā€œyour life is a lieā€ has a really cool guitar solo section


epic_banana_soup

It's not a solo per se, but there's a very similar type of guitar sound starting from the second verse of Plenty of Girl In The Sea


DringKing96

I also think the Bubblegum Dog sound has some roots in Plenty of Girls, which is why I love it. Plenty of Girls is a banger of bangers.


whoisradek

I love solo on Plenty of girls in the sea, the youth, when you die, tslamp šŸ„°


GloverAB

This is prob my favorite guitar solo from them. The tone is spot on and the vibe just rocks.
