I spent some time with this album today and it hit me pretty hard. Even the stuff I'd been keen to skip ("Drunk Girls", "Somebody's Calling Me") resonated especially deep after giving this album some distance. Definitely my favorite of the three.

I'll credit the band for recognizing that altering (or in this case, halting) its momentum allows you to take a break and appreciate its albums all over again, minus the distractions of tours, news, interviews, hype, upcoming releases, etc.

You know, for a dude who ostensibly broke up the band to lower his visibility and take some time off, James Murphy has been surprisingly busy and visible. Movies, making movies, still doin' interviews ...

iirc the whole point of him "breaking up" the band was so that he'd have time to work on all the other stuff he wanted to work on

He broke up LCD so that he'd have time to reform them and break them up again.

tbh I am kind of cross w/ Tyler Pope for not reforming Out Hud since I mean he's prob got a lot more free time than Jams

I really wish the DFA DJ Rotary Mixer was actually happening. No news for a year seems to indicate it's never happening

Wait... Nancy's last name is pronounced "Wong", not "Wang"? This really shakes up everything I knew about the universe.

From October the 8th you can own the documentary and the entire 4 hour concert film (sound mixed by James Murphy) on DVD and Blu-ray. The concert film is exclusive to the DVD and Blu-ray release – you cannot buy it separately. As well as the documentary and full concert the DVD and Blu-ray also comes filled with extras.

Loved listening to the boot of the show, but for the life of me can't imagine who would sit down and watch the four hour concert at home.
