Sound of Silver

Ingredients: - 1 cup of The Strokes - 1 cup of Devo - 1.5 tsp of Television - .5 tsp of Daft Punk - 2 heaping tbsp of cowbell Directions: 1. Add all ingredients to silver saucepan. Stir to combine. 2. Bring to a boil, then let simmer on medium-low heat for 56 minutes and 12 seconds. 3. Pour into a silver bowl. Garnish with extra cowbell and percussion as desired. 4. Serve and enjoy.

The year is 2007. It's summer. I just turned 21, built myself a fixie, and am living in Seattle in a party house. At any time of any day or night you can find me at one of the 4 following places: Zeeks Pizza. Riding my fixie around the city. Crashing dance parties. Sitting on my front stoop drinking a bum jug of burgundy and vibing to this album. It was a summer of self discovery. Weed, mushrooms, ecstacy. I fingered strange women, parachuted envelopes of molly, turned every pair of jeans into jorts, smoked filterless Lucky Strikes in softpacks rolled into my tshirt sleeves. I had neon sunglasses. I was a huge fucking chode but was having the goddamn time of my life. And LCD Soundsystem was there every sweaty, drunk, sunny, indulgent step of the way. This album was anthemic. It played at house parties, bonfires, sunny day bike rides, dive bar patios. It fueled my self-indulgence and was a comforting backing track as I eschewed my religious upbringing and discovered there is nothing inherently sinful in the pursuit of pleasure. I don't think I'm interested in reliving 2007 but I'm glad for the memories. Thanks for helping me get laid so much, James Murphy.

You know, this started strong and I was like, "heck yeah, this is four stars easy!" but dang does it ever get repetitive as hell. Halfway through, my ears were exhausted. An few songs later, I wanted to stab things. By the time I was finished, I was mostly just angry that there is more than one LCD Soundsystem album on this list because that means that I have to do this again at some point. Also someone needs to have their cowbell confiscated until they can prove that they can be responsible with it.

Listening to this album feels like being poked gently with a dull object for 55 minutes and 55 seconds. At first it's just kinda irritating. Then as you get used to it, it's not so bad, you start to tune it out. Then there are actually moments where the poking feels invigorating, almost like a massage, but not quite as pleasant. And you almost feel sad and empty when the poking finally stops, like an integral part of you just disappeared. And then it hits you - you were sitting there letting someone poke you for almost an hour, when doing just about anything else would have been more enjoyable. 2 gentle pokes out of 5 👉👉

Indie dance music for people who don’t like indie dance music.

My bird liked this very much and chirped along with the music.

So obnoxiously repetitive. “North American Scum” might be one of the ugliest songs I’ve ever heard. Trying to sound 80s without the authenticity.

New York, you're bringing me down.

James Murphy wears his influences on his sleeve here. If you’re a fan of David Bowie, Brian Eno, Talking Heads and/or Kraftwerk, you’ll probably find something to like. Conversely, you might hate it because it’s a little on-the-nose.

Don't have eloquent enough words to describe how great this album is. Entwined with crystal clear memories of the euphoria of dancing with friends at their gigs and hazier memories of dancing in fields at sunrise.

Derivative. Some songs remind me of Talking Heads, but without any passion. Oh hey, I remember this song from KEXP. “New York I love you but you’re bringing me down”

Bowie with an 808, innovative, bouncy and fun

“Sound of silver, talk to me, makes you want to feel like a teenager, until you remember the feelings of a real life emotional teenager, then you think again.” The most improbably lengthy, yet still catchy, hook I have ever known. I’ve been a fan of LCD Soundsystem for quite some time, but have never strayed far beyond their excellent 2010 album “This is Happening” (sadly not in the 1001 list- I checked). I’ve tried to get into Sound of Silver before but have never made it through, so I’m glad to have given it more time here, because it’s brilliant. The best or worst thing about LCD Soundsystem, depending on one’s angle, is that James Murphy is a born magpie, shamelessly cherry-picking from his record collection and spinning old hits and deep cuts into new concoctions. Is this a smart skewing of DJ and electronica sampling in a rock environment? Is it an example of post-modern bricolage to reflect our increasingly fractured world, just like a shattered mirrorball? Or is it just a huge rip-off? Kraftwerk, Pete Shelley, Bowie, David Byrne and many more could put a reasonable case in after hearing this album, as well as any other by Murphy. Bowie’s response to Murphy’s plagiarism admission? “You can’t steal from a thief, darling.” My feelings are similar: everything is borrowed in one way or another. All heroes have heroes and nothing is made in a vacuum, like it or not. With this album, Murphy just about stays on the right side of pastiche. “Get Innocuous” is a very well-constructed opening, from the distinctive synth percussion intro, to the bassline filtering its way into existence, to the echoing foreboding vocals right up to the chant towards the end. It’s completely addictive and had me hooked as it unfurled all the way. The third track, “North American Scum” is an adrenaline-fuelled stomper with a satisfyingly beefy sound and passionate, furious vocals from Murphy. But “Someone Great” and “All My Friends” are on another level: sublime tracks making up the heart of the record. Immediate, emotive, simple: true modern classics, and the fact we get them back to back here is astonishing. My only gripe is that these two centrepieces set such a high bar for the rest of the record. The other two highlights are “Us v Them”, an admirable epic which manages to keep the momentum going against all odds after “All My Friends”, and the stirring, dejected “New York I Love You But You’re Bringing Me Down”. On the other hand, “Sound of Silver” and “Watch the Tapes” could have arguably been trimmed out to make a much tighter album. “Time to Get Away”, too, is relatively lightweight, enjoyable but failing to reach the same heights as most of the other songs here. Still, this is an immediate, irresistible hit. Catchy, immaculately produced and full of humour and heart, it’s a nine out of ten for sure.

Great album. It’s an interesting mix of fun danceable (get innocuous, tone to get away, North American scum) juxtaposed with a few emotionally resonant masterpieces (Someone Great, All My Friends, New York I Love You). I hear prince, I hear electronic, I hear punk, I hear tribal rhythms. The repetitive style of the songs either put you in a dance trance or hammer home the reverence. I want to give this a 5, it deserves it, but I think Sound of Silver and Watch the Tapes, could’ve been left off for a perfect album. I’m stuck between 4-5. Might have to sleep on it.

meh

The best single LCD Soundsystem studio album for sure. I love everything they did through the MSG "farewell" run, shame that James Murphy has become cringe ever since reforming the band

Massive Open, consistent diverse sounds somewhere between White Stripes and OK GO, and it does it for me. Hell yes.

An amazing album in its own right and my favourite by LCD. On rotation at least once every couple of months with James Murphy's trademark idiosyncratic style and attention to detail it always makes me smile/dance.

This is the archetype of what everything seemed to sound like when retired from listening to popular alternative music and retreated to a bar to grow a beard instead. This isn’t bad, just pick n mix industrial-emo-garage-danceable bullet points on a mid-noughts A&R dude’s bullshit bingo card.

such a cool album, definitely a nostalgia trip. New York I Love You singlehandedly brings it from an 8 to a 9/10. my main criticism is that some of the songs feel a little too drawn out, but its still great

Sharp and funky and emotional and cool all at the same time.

Listened just yesterday to it. Infectious and driving referencing all the good stuff that's came before and inventing new things along the way. James Murphy is a great guy and his personality just flows out of the music. 'All My Friends' is such an anthem.

Decidedly uncool, it feels too self conscious and try hard. There are parts that threaten to tickle my fancy but ultimately I just feel bleh about this album. Someone needs to tell this bloke he ain’t Prince.

They don't do brevity, do they? Not sure I really get on board with combining Kraftwerk and Moroder with post-millennial irony. There's a kind of lassitude that squats at the heart of this project that turns me off. The music isn't good enough to pull me back. Repetition has its place as a tool for creating an ambience, but alas, that place is not on an LCD Soundsystem album.

LCD was one of the first shows I saw with my wife, back in 2017 at Brooklyn Steel - just a great live act. I don’t really care for pure electronic music in general, but I love when a band can pull off that sound and vibe with a full band. I also love a full circle/serendipity moment - this was the assigned album on the day my first kid was born - two days ago, over seven years after that first show with my wife. I only got through a few songs in the morning when I went to grab coffees, before things got real. And here I am a few days later back home listening to New York I Love You with him sleeping on my chest. So far fatherhood gets 5 out of 5 stars, and I can’t give his first album anything less. Can’t wait to introduce him to Kollaps.

Sound of Silver I’m very familiar with this album, one of my favourites by one of my favourite ‘modern’ bands. I listened to it A LOT when it came out and I still return to it pretty regularly. I cannot believe it's actually 17 years old. Its influences are worn very obviously on its sleeves, with James Murphy clearly magpie-ing from Bowie, Can, Kraftwerk, Daft Punk, Talking Heads, Brian Eno, dance, disco, house, new wave, punk. And while those influences are easily identifiable, they are shepherded together to make something that, although not totally unique, is definitely a great synthesis of all of the above in its own nice The triumvirate of North American Scum, Someone Great and All My Friends is superb, the cornerstone and heartbeat of the album, and encapsulates what I love about LCD Soundsystem. The new wave/punk edged North American Scum with its wryly amusing lyric, the hypnotic drive and build around the rhythmic and pounding keyboard and sincerity of the lyric of All My Friends. But best of all, Someone Great, which I absolutely love, with its pulsing keyboards and noises and its vaguely cryptic lyric about loss, emotionally resonant yet slightly out of touch. Either side of that, I love the layering of Get Innocuous! and the insistency of the groove and drum pattern. I love the drum sound on Time to Get Away, and again the groove is great, with the little riff/break for the chorus and angular/new wave guitar. Brilliant bass groove on Us V Them, I love the cowbell and the breakout into the ‘Block out the sun’ part. Watch the Tapes is yet another great, mesmeric groove with a great beat and another sardonic lyric - 2 new wave dance bangers. I’ve always liked the lyric of Sound of Silver and the song is a great dazed and moodily atmospheric track built around those words and some excellent keyboard noises. New York I Love You is a great closing track after all the dance driven grooves, with it’s more conventional arrangement and almost doo-wop verses. I love this album, from the sound of the drums and keyboards to the vocal style, the wry lyrics and the fantastic danceable grooves interspersed with genuinely emotionally impactful moments. It’s very easy for this type of album to fall into the trap of hipsterish imitation, but the fact that James Murphy is a bit older than his peers and his undoubted skill as a synthesist of his influences makes this a cut above, and one of my favourite albums of the last 20 years. Easy peasy 5. 🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩 Playlist submission: Someone Great Ps, the album after this, This Is Happening is also excellent, and if you like it it’s worth checking out their other 2 albums. The first one is a little rough around the edges but has some great tracks and American Dream, their last one, has a slightly older, more mature feel to it. The 45:33 mix is also good, some of the musical moments and parts in that got pulled into Sound of Silver.

That was excellent! I had never heard it before and I will be hearing it many many times in the future.

LCD Soundsystem brought back my hangover. 6/5

Life changing

Unreal album any EDM or electro fans ...this is a must

I really don’t think this band is for everyone. But, this is one of my favorite albums by one of my favorite bands. It combines so many of my favorite genre elements, from punk to disco to even Phillip Glass-esque repetitive sound. More LCD Soundsystem.

A perfect example of music that's dancy, electric, eclectic, and dynamic all at the same time. The comparisons to Talking Heads are apt, although they definitely lean into the electronics more, and are not as globally influenced as some of the Talking Heads stuff. With the exception of "All my friends" (frankly, a bit of a dud), all the songs are incredibly solid and fill out their time well. As an album, it never gets boring with its sound, each song has its own strongly unique fingerprint on this album. I'm a bit biased because I've listened to this album a lot before, but I know I love it, and getting it in this challenge was a treat.

The first half of this album is god tier and 'all my friends' is one of my top five songs of all time. It's fun, clever, cool, funky, danceable, heartfelt, energetic, uplifting and well made in terms of musicality and production. It does what good music does and fills my heart with happiness.

A modern classic. Their debut album had its moments but was irritating at times. This album is more consistent and has much better songs. I can also appreciate their later work, but overall those albums are not as good as Sound of Silver.

Quando as guitarras encontram com o melhor das batidas eletrônicas garantem 55:55 imersos num espetáculo sonoro.

Awesome album. Not usually a big fan of electronic music but this one hit right. Last song was my fav.

Their absolute peak. Lyrically brilliant and untouchable for much of it. Pretty much no missteps and just a joy start to finish.

Wondered if it would have aged well. It did. Awesome.

ONe of my fav electronic albums

Awesome!

I never gave this a chance when it came out, and that was a mistake it’s full of great tunes!

Get Innocuous is amazing and by far the best track on the record. The rest of the album is just okay.

Corny throughout but I think after getting over the stink of dance pop there's something heartfelt and good to jam around to.

All song were fantastic but like 8 minutes

really fun album! my first of lcd soundsystem, and im glad i listened, it was a blast. 8/10

1st time listening. Very enjoyable; loved the first 2 reviews about it. Good time had by me.

I'm in a bad mood at the moment and have a headache, but I'm pretty sure I like this.

Another one I've owned forever and never really listened to. In this case, a pleasant surprise! It's no more than the sum of its parts, but those parts are among my favorites. It's pretty hard to mess up a margarita given quality ingredients, and similarly if you put "The Man-Machine", "Lodger" and "Extricate" in a blender the result will taste pretty good regardless. 1 + 1 + 1 = 3

J'ai été très surpris de ne pas tomber sur un album mais sur un Fast & Curious avec Hugo Clément. Pour autant je dois dire que certains moments m'ont beaucoup plu, comme par exemple celui où l'intéressé doit choisir entre les mots "réfléchir" et "agir" et qu'il répond "agir".

The first song is an absolute banger, was actually a little disappointed with the rest of the album :(

В Max Payne 3 было пару миссий-флешбеков, где действия разворачивались в нуарном Нью-Йорке вместо бразильских фавел. Контраст, что они производят, должен привносить разнообразие, дополнять происходящее. Мною же это воспринималось как издевательство, мол "Чувак, смотри, мы умеем, могли бы всю игру сделать приятной и интересной... но не захотели, хы-ы-ы-ы". На этих миссиях понимаешь, что смена сеттинга в триквеле - это просто лютый кал в рамках серии. Казалось бы, при чём тут ключи? Вроде очевидно, что последний трек альбома... похож на нормальную музыку. Перед этим ты почти смиряешься, что вот это монотонное повторение неприятных звуков и рандомных фраз может в определённый момент определённому человеку немного доставить. Но потом начинается последний трек и понимаешь "Ой не, нахуй это дерьмо, я ебал просто, нахуй этот кал, когда люди уже давно нормальную музыку придумали?". А, наверное, "чтобы расширять рамки восприятия, создавать что-то, отличное от созданного"? Не, ну ребят, давайте вы этот монотонный кал на фоне для себя как-нить наклепаете, а в топ уже чё-нить нормальное выкатите, а? Шоб вот включить, и весело. Или грустно. Или одухотворённо. А не скучно. Для последнего у меня есть "Две минуты тишины" за авторством Джона Леннона и Йоко Оно, захочется - на репит поставлю. Вышесказанное характерно для вступительного трека и с 5 по 8. В 2-4 всё же можно найти адекватные элементы. Но отличной музыкой назвать - вряд ли. North American Scum - хорошей, ладно. Отличной можно назвать лишь последний трек. Но это всё не вытягивает альбом даже до середняка.

Not really a fan of this one, I knew of North American Scum already but the rest of the tracks all drone on for at least 2 minutes longer than necessary.

Annoying

By golly, I really did not like this album. Yuck. Some of the songwriting is good, but even then, the background instrumentals are just awful. I don't like the looping approach taken on a lot of these songs. The songs will start by slowly adding each layer, and then the song is just kind of stuck with that as it goes on. It can't really change much from then on. The melody will change, and they might add another layer, but that's it. I liked the last song okay I guess, although it was off to a rocky start. The second to last song though...ugh. Too long, and very bad.

Dance-punk, electronic rock, electronica, indie rock, dance-rock, art rock

What do you rate an album with two 5-star songs, a couple 4 star songs and the rest 3 star songs? I probably won't play the whole thing through often but I'll be listening to the 5 star songs until death do us part.

Finally something in my wheelhouse! Get Innocuous starts with a pretty long drum machine intro with an acid style bass in the background. Funky! James Murphy’s vocals remind me of David Bowie. Also there’s some female vocals and guitar too. And a violin outro. Next is Time to Get Away. Nice funk drum intro. Got some clavinet and some percussion. Very funky. Reminds me of Talking Heads. Next is North American Scum. One of their hits, and a song I remember digging a lot when I first heard it somewhere. The lyrics are hilarious! Next is Someone Great, which I heard is a tribute to James Murphy’s late therapist. It’s very beautiful. Reminds me of This May Be The Place by Talking Heads. Amazing. Next is All My Friends. Very Krautrocky and has a John Cale esque piano part (fittingly enough he actually covered this song) Also they referenced Pink Floyd’s Set The Controls to the Heart of the Sun! Very good song! Next is Us v Them. I remember hearing this song in Burnout Paradise and digging it. Also I like the part where James Murphy says “Bells” and then agogo bells play. Huge banger. And it has an instrument called the “Fun Machine”. I don’t know what that is, but every song should have it. Next is Watch the Tapes. Nice ramonesy punk intro leading into a dancer new wave / post punk main portion. It’s alright. Also some funny studio chatter at the end Next is Sounds of Silver, with an acapella intro and some Linn drum and synth bass, then going into an ethereal section with choir and piano, then a tribal dubby section with lots of reverb and delay, and some xylophone sounds. Really trippy. Pretty minimal lyrics, but that’s ok cuz it’s mostly focused on the instrumental and the progression of the song, with the repeated refrain being a mantra. I like this experimental stuff. Finally is New York I love You But You’re Bringing Me Down. Another song I have previously heard. Mostly cuz of the music video with Kermit and its use in movie trailers. Very scathing critique of Bloomberg era New York City (which still remain prescient under the current Eric Adams regime. Dude was tried for corruption for Christs sake). Love when it goes all balls too the wall with the distortion at the end a la Rock and Roll Suicide by Bowie. Also it has a fake out at the end like Strawberry Fields Forever or November Rain! Damn good album!!!

:)

Ah I’m so glad this is here. I wrote in my review of american dream review that I really hope Sound of Silver is on this list. This is LCD Soundsystem’s clear magnum opus to me, even if James Murphy and company haven’t had a bad album yet. All My Friends is one of my all time favorite songs. The title track has a way of getting lodged in my head. NYILYBYBMD is a fantastic closer. Brilliant.

If there is ever an end of the world party, the headliner would be LCD Soundsystem

:D

metti giù quell'arma lina D: --> 5 stelle

HELL YEAH!!!!

Quel pied cette musique. Parfaitemente euphorisante. Un 5 étoiles assez évident, quasiment tout est bon, depuis l'ouverture \"Get Innocuous !\", puis l'enchainement \"It's time to get away\", \"American Scum\", \"Someone Great\", \"All my friends\"... C'est le groupe qui me fait regretter de ne pas être cette personne plus extravertie, qui danse pour oublier et célébrer l'instant. Mais jamais je ne m'en suis senti aussi proche.

Oh my God, perhaps one of the most "a good pair of headphones" albums I ever have heard, LCD Soundsystem's Sound of Silver has been elevated for me beyond on unimaginable limit due to not only its masterclass production, pure danceability and funk, as well as its consistency, but also because it is perhaps the best understanding of what made New York acts like Talking Heads so fantastic. There's variation, there's intrigue, there's layers upon layers upon layers, not unlike Eno's production, to every song so that focusing on just one singular instrument in each track can give you its own groove, its own song entirely. Even when the album slows down for the final track, it is so gripping in its blend of amateur vocals and heartbreaking melancholia that it's hard not to be pulled in. This album just feels like a pure passion project executed to the best of all involved's abilities to deliver one of the most outstanding dance albums of all time; one that can still appeal to those from the past looking for a new dance-y post-punk fix, and those just looking for some 2000s alternative goodness, it is an amazing time no matter how you get here. I just heavily recommend good headphones, you won't regret it when you jump out of your chair to dance.

They should play this in clubs. It would make the whole scene so much more tolerable.

Great dance album. I've heard it several times before this, it's pretty popular. Very groovy with nice beats but it's different from other edm, hard to describe. I'm sure I will be listening to this many more times. I think it's a classic and sonically very interesting.

is nice

Some great rhythms and some techno vibes here and there. The vocals were also pretty good, they didn't bother me as much as vocals on similar albums. All My Friends and Get Innocuous are both bangers.

Own it. Love it.

Perfect album front to back. So hard to pick a favourite song

James Murphy & the rest of his Soundsystem have a deep working knowledge of the slow build. these songs often stretch as long as 7 or 8 minutes, and somehow they seem to flash by. even for as glacially paced as some of these builds are, they maintain this electrifying sense of intrigue at every moment. the mark of having fun is time flying, after all! Talking Heads is maybe the most obvious influence at play here (to me, at least), but the influence of sixties and seventies minimal music can't be ignored either. as much as these songs are all undeniable jams, they also have a tendency to put me in a bit of a trance, especially the title track. both LCD Soundsystem and minimalism have a strong association with New York City, so I don't know if I can call that a coincidence! the mix of electronic and acoustic instruments to create these dance grooves is near-perfect in its execution. this is no doubt a studio project, but it always maintains a live feel. there's little blemishes in the percussion, synths so big they sometimes clip, and often unrestrained lead vocals, but it's all in service to the groove. Murphy's topical focus is also quite strong, mostly centered around the passage of time and its effects on his life and his mind. while these songs often feel like they're suspended in time, Murphy is well aware that time never truly stops, for better or worse. I relate a lot more heavily to the sentiment of "All My Friends" at 27 than I did when I listened to this album for the first time at 19. decent 9/10.

I love this album. It's probably a 9/10. It gets a 5 in this format.

I mean, I’ve listened to this album probably hundreds of times at this point. It’s an all-timer, it’s a classic, it’s 10/10.

Such a good album

Tough between this and This Is Happening on what my favorite of theirs is. Still incredibly strong and a fun listen. Perfect music to work to as well. Rating: 4.8

This album hits all the marks for me. Making loops is very fun, but after so many times you find the loop, no matter how many layers you create, ends up feeling hollow. That's why its more fun playing in a band with other people. Murphy took the benefits of loops, technology, endless instruments etc but didn't let that limit the songs. He still created something with substance and variety. It does sound a bit lonely at times, but it works. Uniquely LCD Soundsystem.

Besides the three absolute bangers on this album, there are some nice deep cuts. I really like New York, I love you. Watch The Tapes was also good. This album is played a lot. It doesn’t sound overly 2007. It pushes a unique futuristic retro theme that is iconic. Doesnt get old whenever I hear it in the wild

Pretty much a perfect album for me. All My Friends is one of my favourite songs of all time, but every other track hits too. Fave Tracks: all of them 5/5

“I have a fever and the cure for that fever is More Cowbell!” Luckily, there is Us vs. Them, which I never thought I would say, but has amazing cowbell! I tripped across LCD years ago and have loved this album since, with my absolutely key track being the aforementioned. The way he builds on rhythm and sound is intoxicating in its repetitiveness. I don’t know if there is a bad track on here. In the context of when this was put out, there was nothing like it. This is definitely a modern classic!

I’m a big can of LCD Soundsystem. This album and their debut self-titled one are classics. 100% good. lCD Soundsystem are playing at my house!

Masterpiece from the north American scum

five stars not because i think it's perfect music, but because it's an album that means a lot to me

listened to the songs many times but never the full album

love it

i love

Guay!

10/10

Bowie with an 808, innovative, bouncy and fun

Un álbum realmente espectacular. Actualmente, LCD Soundystem es reconocido como uno de los compositores y productores musicales más interesantes de Estados Unidos, y "Sound of Silver" demuestra por qué. La energética combinación de electrónica y rock, con una estética "Indie Sleaze", hacen de este LP un producto de su época en el mejor sentido posible. Un sonido único que está volviendo a la palestra, y que probablemente vivirá en el inconsciente colectivo de todos los jóvenes (y no tan jóvenes), por su capacidad de catarsis. Sumamente recomendable.

Ah this was my time, New Rave era... I saw LCD Soundsystem the same year this came out, probably wearing a load of plasticky neon jewellery and a CSS t-shirt. Not entirely sure why I stopped listening to them - I think this has aged really well compared to some other stuff of the same era, so happy to have a nudge to get back to them.

I heard “Someone Great” from this album while shopping at The Gap with my future spouse. That prompted me to download the entire album and I listened to it incessantly through a challenging professional period In my life. This is a five star album for me, personally. You may not agree, and that’s OK, but sometimes the emotion and the quality of music intertwine exquisitely.

I mean, come on.

Honestly, every song on this album is at least good, so I feel like I can give it this, even if it’s not necessarily a favorite.

Hell yes dude, this is what dance punk is all about. But this is more like progressive dance punk, it just transcends genre labels. Fucking love this album.

I really liked this album! I ended up listening to it at least twice (mostly because I had shit to do so I was focused on that) and I like the song that the 1975 copied a lot (it's now on my playlist)

My favourite LCD soundsystem album. The best songs I've heard about grief and losing control of your life.

Reminds me of playing Forza 2 at my old place back in the 00s - despite none of these tracks being in that game. I guess LCD Soundsystem have a sound - and that isn't a problem, because that sound is good.

Listened on repeat Never soured, kept moving feet, So fun, so unique

I loved this album.
