Everyone likes it. I haven't seen a review with less that 4 stars. I don't get it. I just don't think it's special.

That's where I am on this. It isn't a bad album, but it hasn't blown me away either. None of the songs blew me away or stuck in my head. The last MGMT album was similar. It was a departure from the previous one, with a few decent songs and was supposed to be considered a cohesive work not just a collection of singles. I just sort of forgot about it a few weeks after it came out.
