We Hear of Love, of Youth, and of Disillusionment is a Daytrotter session recorded at the first Moogfest[1] in Asheville, North Carolina by MGMT.[2] It contains a cover of "Only a Shadow", a song originally performed by The Cleaners from Venus. The song was part of several of MGMT's setlists on their tour dates for the promotion of their second album Congratulations, and this release marks the first studio take on the song.
The session can be listened to online at Daytrotter,[3] and the cover illustration was made by the Daytrotter team member Johnnie Cluney.
