In an interview that he did with
Intercourse Magazine, published in January, Andrew VanWyngarden of MGMT revealed that his band has started work on a new album, and that he has written a total of five songs inspired by R.E.M.
The publication, with headquarters in New York City, seems to be paper-based only and of limited distribution, so I couldn't have access to the magazine but the interview is referenced in various places across the Internet, such as wikipedia.

"But now you're here and it's different, how the light shines in your eyes, and every second a century, it's then that I realized, the world as we know it, a high speed train, we'll pick it up and start again"
