Back in March, we got a little excited about the possibility of a new LCD Soundsystem album coming out. Kenny had them riding high on his list of top albums saying:
LCD Soundsytem did everything possible to stop ‘This is Happening‘ being leaked before its time. And that only added to the hype surrounding their third studio album. It is testament to the project’s reputation amongst bloggers that – on the whole – their pleas were answered favourably.
This album only reaffirms their status as kings of a genre. Filled with electro-indie goodness and wit this album is a peach. We can but hope that James Murphy – Mr LCD – backtracks on his plans to make this the last full-length from the legendary outfit.
Meanwhile, Cougar Microbes caught them live at Brixton Academy for a sold-out show back in April.
