"This Is Happening": the third album by LCD Soundsystem

Please do.

is this happening?

Joanna Newsom should call her next album "This is Harpening."

n/a on fire today

too right

him and his corporate buzzdisplayname

I retreat in shame anew

Nononononononononono. Post the fucking poem.

DO NOT POST THE FUCKING POEM (in this thread, start a new one)

it's fucking 16 sides of A4 long and there are bits where it's oddly formatted

please post

GIS for A4 long turns this up:

That looks like more than a 4 to me.

does oxymandias have labia?

Merriam-Webster says:

Main Entry: happening
Function: noun
Date: 1551

1 : something that happens : occurrence
2 : an event or series of events designed to evoke a spontaneous reaction to sensory, emotional, or spiritual stimuli
3 : something (as an event) that is particularly interesting, entertaining, or important

Thinking the second and/or third definitions are most relevant to this album.

I'm pretty sure it's also going to be something that happens though.

an "occurrence" if you will

kinda wish he'd titled it This is Sparta

fails the 'yeah' test

This is Sparta, Yeah?

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?

This has been killing me for the last couple hours. Bruce Springsteen's The River is almost it, but not quite.

it reminds you of franz ferdinand, and corporations

No! I don't even understand that! Isn't Franz Ferdinand's aesthetic like Eastern Bloc propaganda or something?

Man, Franz Ferdinand. Missing 2004 right now.

Riiiiiicola!

any album-title you could conscionably add 'yeah' on the end of in regular speech isn't worth adopting imo

Does it offend you?

looool

considering recording music as Does It Offend You, LOL

Cover reminds me of:

maybe it reminds you of that because that's a painting by Robert Longo and the DFA announcement specifically referenced Robert Longo

we have a black president, and you do not - so shut up.

embarrassing.

I know, right? when are you guys gonna get on that

'Dance yourself clean' could have been a great title imo.

Kinda looks half arsed how James appears to be just leaning on a wall in the photo. Font and Colour of the font seem like a joke, argh...

"we have a female prime minister -- so shut up"

Font and color directly ref some 80s album that's been on the tip of my tongue all afternoon. So yes, probably part of a joke.

love how that line is already bothering british people

it's a gd embarrassing line!

it's the irish who're really feelin' it imo

I want to say something on Rykodisc.

this album is probably gonna be pretty good, i dont really know i mean. yallr gonna hear it like crazy over the next 3-6 months anyway so like feels a bit weird to speculate so much abt it?

this album killed music

At least we still have blogs.

Yeah but Joanne Newstrom killed those.
