Watch: MGMT Release Cinematic Trailer For New Album

Psychedelic indie-pop duo MGMT have released a thrilling, cinematic trailer for their forthcoming self-titled new album, out on September 17th via Columbia.

The six-minute trailer includes samples of unreleased tracks along with the first single "Your Life Is A Lie." In the video, frontman Andrew VanWyngarden starts off in his home somewhere in the jungle, gets attacked by a possum, and heads to band practice where the group rehearses a previously unheard track. 

Then, the clip takes an unexpected turn when it's revealed that the NSA is spying on the band, discovering that extraterrestrial beings referred to as the “Reptoids” have heard the new MGMT album and are now heading to Earth. 

Check out the trailer, directed by Jordan Fish, below.
