I do get that this is a logical extension of his aesthetic/fits within the oeuvre but that's not a reason to like the song imo

lol
caek you'll notice I didn't trash the song - I merely said it reminded me of an Elton Motello classic
but yeah you are right to be stoked - I might even like it this time!

the fact that you think this song sounds anything like the elton motello song makes me think that you have some bizarro sound filter in your head when it comes to lcd soundsystem
― iatee, Friday, 26 March 2010 14:14 (3 years ago) Permalink
the basslines, man! also the lyrical content and the vibe. add a load of bright n bouncy synths to the motello and bam

I was kind of horrified at the start but it won me over.
^^^
well, maybe not horrified, but it didn't have the wow factor of hearing anything off sound of silver for the first time. seems pretty clear that this is going to be an outlier though, still looking forward to the whole record.

This song is great, you are all mad.

This is clearly the joke track that appears 2/3rds of the way through the album though.
― Matt DC, Friday, 26 March 2010 17:29 (3 years ago) Permalink
this is the lead single though unfortunately

studio clips may or may not reveal what the rest of the record sounds like?

i have to imagine that they'll play at least a few (if not a bunch) of new songs at coachella in a few weeks

This is sorta the same way I felt about the first single from the last lp - "North American Scum" to me was horrible, and I thought 'what the F is this crap' for a first single. Then heard the album and thought it was great. But still didn't care too much for that song though.

cuz it sounds like lumpen britpop with beered-up football chanting? completely completely sucks, even the so-called groove is tedious

agree with this after hearing drunk girls and that AWFUL pow pow song. horrible macho shouting with some background sneering. hope the rest of the album isn't like this.

"Drunk Girls" sounds tossed-off, formulaic LCD by numbers...He's done this style before as others have pointed out

haha there's always been a strong rose tattoo element to lcd.
i've never really liked the monotone barky side of LCD so was hoping the new stuff would be more emotional disco like 'someone great', 4533 and 'all my friends'. or even the bouncy pop of 'yeah' and the deceptacon remix. the two i've heard just seem more of the usual dry detached plodstomp, with added jockrock. looking forward to hearing 'dance yourself clean' though - i've never been the biggest fan but when they're good, they're awesome

Hah awesome, love the title/art. Just trying to think what the cover reminds me of...some early-to-mid 80s early CD art by an established artist, no?

RIP indie
can't believe jams sold out and went w/ an unironic corporate buzztitle and decided to be inspired by franz ferinand

D'oh for being the only person who likes the cover. It's no New Amerykah pt 2, but I think it's dapper.

seriously lj, do you sometimes sit there and think to yourself "let's see, what is the most speciously infuriating thing I could write to make my fellow posters sprain their eyeballs from reflexive rolling" before you post?
