Whole heartedly agree. Amazing album.
Have been fortunate enough to see them live three times also, always a great gig.
'I can change' my number 1 album track of last year...superb!!

Great band, probably my best of the last 8 years. I think they'll be back, James Murphy seems to enjoy it and a few years away will make it too tempting imo. Best memory was from their last Brixton late night gig afterparty at Plan B, with James M and Nancy Djing. Top night.

In light of the rather good Arcade Fire single I thought I'd revisit this thread.

Great tune, great lyrics.
And love is a murderer, love is a murderer
But if she calls you tonight
Everything is all right
Yeah, we know
And love is a curse shoved in a hearse
Love is an open book to a verse of your bad poetry
And this is coming from me

have you bought the bluray of the final MSG shows? Its brilliant, what a set - 4 hours of just about everything. I've not watched the film / doco' about the lead up to the shows yet. Since we watched the show last weekend I've been driving my wife mental with outbursts of "and so it starts...." and "heeey.....shame on you". One of my favourite bands for sure.

Yes, I have seen it (Shut Up and Play The Hits is the name of it). The gig itself is great but the documentary is also brilliant, and is mainly James talking about the band, the reasons for starting a band so late in life and the reasons for finishing on top cut with footage. You will find it very interesting I'm sure. The extras from the interview are just as good and there is a rather fun short film about when James went to meet his manager a few months after the MSG gig. And an extra bit of trivia is that the interview is conducted in Norman Cook's NYC bar/restaurant.
Interesting you mention your wife as me and the Frau spoke about LCD Soundsystem on the first night we met (she is a massive fan as well) and went to see them shortly after getting together. They were playing a small open air gig on Ibiza shortly after we got married......that answered the question about where to honeymoon and we have a framed poster advertising the gig on our lounge wall. Without doubt one of my favourite bands and for so many reasons. As for lyrics we often recite sections from Losing My Edge; a clever theme and witty lyrics which seem quite fitting for us when we're milling around at gigs surrounded by youngsters.

This still makes me sad, my favourite band of the 00's. They were stunning live from the small venues to the bigger ones, their show to close Bestival in 2010 is an all time top 10 and probably the most euphoric I've ever felt at a gig.
I'm waiting hopefully for the reunion, somewhere around 2020 I reckon.
SUAPTH is amazing synopsis of everything that was great about them, I toyed with jumping on the plane for those gigs. Wish I had now.

Still love it though. Murphy was never less than open about his influences but this one always struck me as a bit more of an open rip.

Ironically, I have the 12" of Losing My Edge, having bought it on the strength of hearing it was a cool record to have and wanting to be "on trend".
