Yeah I was on the official website, just never seemed to start. Oh well, got it going in Chrome now.

okay the first track on this just blossomed into something awesome
this is a really great moment imo

hahaha "Drunk Girls" being "North American Scum Part 2" is even more blatant in context
― don't you steal my Sunstein (HI DERE), Thursday, 15 April 2010 15:28 (fourteen years ago) link
actually more like "North American Scum and It's Time To Get Away had a baby and named Daft Plunk Is Playing At My House its godfather"

there's a 15 minute instrumental version of "dance yourself clean" titled "in the pool (no bass)" that jams made for a fashion show or something.
want to hear this.
both of the previous lcd soundsystem albums have been v patchy for me - 2 or 3 songs that i love, the rest forgettable. this, on the other hand, is awesome. i'm having trouble restricting myself to 3 listens a day.
absolutely - might be my favourite thing on the whole record. it brought an absolutely huge grin to my face on my first listen.

upthread when you were wondering if you would like it or not I was gonna say "well, regardless, you'll like 'one touch'"

"All I Want" is kind of annoying. This is the one that had the most "All My Friends" comparisons, right?

You can't go wrong when Nancy Whang starts shouting. It's like only the best DFA tracks are deemed Whang-worthy.

"Somebody's Calling Me" is a big pile of nonsense, huh
― don't you steal my Sunstein (HI DERE), Thursday, 15 April 2010 16:11 (fourteen years ago) link
i've never liked them outside of the singles before but that first track is like: fucking hell
how many songs is 'one touch' quoting then
― thomp, Thursday, 15 April 2010 16:11 (fourteen years ago) link
I was going to say: "Wait till you hear the one that sounds like `Nightclubbing.'"

oh I am so so glad that he realized ending the album with the downtempo half-baked joke of a song idea from Sound of Silver was a terrob;e idea

when i get to the end of this album i am going to try very hard to like this track just out of contrarianism

I love it but I'm the unabashed fanboy w/r/t this album. the drugged out synths are awesome.
― iatee, Thursday, 15 April 2010 16:50 (fourteen years ago) link
The line about Michael Musto in Pow Pow is awful. We should poll the most ridiculous lyrics on this album but i'm not sure if the polling system allows that many options.

Not sure he thinks this, considering "NY I <3 U" is an LCD concert staple and fan favorite.

I got as far as All I Want and stopped listening - not really feeling this at all and I loved Sound of Silver. It feels a bit like he's forgotten how to construct a good groove. It took me until halfway through the first track to work out whether or not I was listening to a fake leak.

I got one of my coworkers to stream this.
He hated "Drunk Girls" but likes a lot of the rest of it (he's up to "I Can Change"). The comment that made me go O_o was "this is pretty good for the most part, kind of Lightning Seeds-ish"
