#433 LCD Soundsystem-Sound Of Silver

Sometimes listening to albums is like going to a wine tasting. Some people get different experiences than everyone else. Oh you get  hints of chocolate and cherry from the Cabernet. Well, I get an earthy taste with a vanilla aftertaste. I think the same can be said about LCD Soundsystem’s second album. The influences are so scattered and plentiful here that I think what I hear might be vastly different than yours . No other band has mixed EMD and rock music better than this. “North American Scum” has the energy of a late 70’s punk band mixed with modern dance music. The closing track “New York I Love You But You are Bringing Me Down” would fit perfectly in a Velvet Underground album. “Someone Great” might be the most upbeat breakup song ever recorded.    In just nine tracks James Murphy and company successfully makes each track different from the next. It is quite impressive. So what flavors do you get from this album?  Obviously  Rolling Stone felt this fine album didn’t age well it had Sound Of Silver at #395 in the 2012 list that’s a 38 album drop.

Just over a year ago, LCD Soundsystem released their first album since their disbandment in 2011 entitled American Dream. What do you think about it now that we're just over a year removed from its release?

For years I’ve seen that name as a headliner for pretty much every festival. Are they that good? Are they any good at all?

Hey yall, /u/tedcruzcontrol here stepping in for /u/ReconEg , who's moving today

Every first random Wednesday of the month whenever /u/ReconEG feels like, we play

Whose Line is it Wednesday, where everything's made up and the points don't matter.

Here's the rules:

-Keep skits in the form of a statement, not a question.

-Any skits longer than two lines should be in quotations.

-If you add any additional commentary, put the skit in quotations. If you don't understand the concept, a skit looks like this: "Things less pretentious than Father John Misty"

Summary:

LCD Soundsystem performs an electric set live from Brooklyn, NY. Directed by Eric Wareheim, the special also stars Macaulay Culkin, Christine Ko and Aparna Nancherla as the band in a ’90s-inspired sitcom titled All My Friends.

this is an unofficial discussion for reactions to the album or whatever your little heart desires. this is for the sake of preserving discussion on as many albums as possible. if there's any releases for the week (or in general) that may be of interest missing from the schedule either PM me or leave a comment somewhere and i'll add it.

Voting for the 2010 portion of the 2010-14 Chart nominees will begin on Monday June 25, 2018. In the two weeks leading up to that date, we will have a daily campaign stop, where we will go through the albums a few at a time and let users discuss their thoughts on each album and debate the merits of it making the chart. There will be one top level comment per album, respond to that instead of making another top level comment. Be respectful of others opinions and take the time to listen to any albums that pique your interest.

Remember that of the group of 90 albums from 2010 we are examining, that 15 will get onto the chart in this round of voting, with those finishing #16-50 moving on to the final round of voting.
