Okay I'm hoping its just the low quality stream linked from Pfork, but the vocals sound AWFUL on "Dance Yrself Clean". Doesn't even really sound like him to me.

no it's him
as to what's lost with tim goldworthy, maybe some of the production chops, judicious editing, someone he'd trust with 'are you sure you want to do this?' etc - gavin russom presence wd explain oldtime synth workouts
this certainly doesn't seem like a major dissapointment though....

Feels So Good is about a billion times better than anything on This Is Happening. Juan + Nancy are crushing James and uh...Gavin, I guess.

can a mod just delete all the hundreds of posts of people asking for illegal stolen versions of someone's hard work and expense, and let the thread stay quiet until people can actually listen to the album?

yall are gonna bitch about the thread being cluttered with 20 posts of people trying to find a leak and not the 200 posts about potato chips?

i liked about half the album on first listen. too many songs sound like something they have done in the past though.

"pow pow" is fucking hilarious btw
not really feeling this tbh, why does "pow pow" exist when we already have "yeah"?
― Simon H., Tuesday, 13 April 2010 05:32 (sixteen years ago)
there's no "all my friends" or (or "someone great" but i personally never loved that song) but there's also no "watch the tapes" -- every song on this is rad as fuck, even digging "drunk girls" more

if you're gonna ask this you might as well ask why the whole band exists
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 13 April 2010 05:34 (sixteen years ago)
I feel like 'home' is the 'all my friends'
also surprised no review has yet mentioned how penguin cafe orchestra-y it is
― iatee, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 05:34 (sixteen years ago)
and "pow pow" is more like "losing my edge" than "yeah" -- i think jams knew he couldn't try and spin a big payoff out of "pow pow" because then it actually would prob be a lame "yeah" redux
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 13 April 2010 05:37 (sixteen years ago)

they've got lots of great distinctive tunes. this is the first record where we get whole-hog retreads IMO, plus some of the departures (IE Somebody's Calling Me) are pretty weak.
― Simon H., Tuesday, 13 April 2010 05:56 (sixteen years ago)
Really enjoying Dance Yrself Clean on first exposure.

Can someone explain to me what he's going on about on most of these songs? If he allowed someone else to write lyrics and sing I would love this album, might even buy it.
― Jacob Sanders, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 07:00 (sixteen years ago)
Who gives a fuck what he's singing about. Bar maybe 3 & 1/2 tunes I do not come to LCD Soundsystem for words.
― No, YOU'RE a disgusting savage (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 07:06 (sixteen years ago)
pretty sure in the past he's said he just sort of comes up w/ shit on the spot iirc

would listen to Stars Of The Lid much more if their lyrics weren't total freshman poetry seminar bullshit
― ksh, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 07:18 (sixteen years ago)
But His lyrics have always been upfront, I mean structurally these are pop songs.
― Jacob Sanders, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 07:19 (sixteen years ago)
Just because they're upfront, and these are pop songs, doesn't mean the lyrics mean anything. And besides, Barthes would say that they mean whatever YOU want them to (I seem to bring this up at least once a year on here), so who gives a fig about Murphy.
