Lcd Soundsystem Tour


LCD Soundsystem is the musical project of producer James Murphy, co-founder of dance-punk label DFA Records. The music of LCD Soundsystem is a mix of dance music and punk, along with elements of disco and other styles. LCD Soundsystem is particularly popular in Britain, with two albums reaching the top 40 of the UK Albums Chart.

In October, 2006 James Murphy released a track entitled "45:33" as part of a promotion with Nike for download from iTunes. The track is, strangely, 45 minutes and 58 seconds long,and was claimed to "reward and push at good intervals of a run" However it was later revealed that this was not the case, but that Murphy merely wanted the opportunity to create a long piece of music, akin to E2-E4 by Manuel Göttsching.

LCD Soundsystem's second album, Sound of Silver, was released on March 12, 2007, to near universal critical acclaim. Praise included Mixmag awarding it the title Album of the Month,a 9.2 score from Pitchfork Media and a 5-star review from The Guardian.The album release was preceded by the single "North American Scum".

LCD Soundsystem received three Grammy Awards. LCD Soundsystem touring UK this year. LCD Soundsystem will perform live on Fri, Apr 23, 2010 O2 Academy Brixton, London.

LCD Sound system Introduction/History

LCD Soundsystem is the musical project of American producer James Murphy, co-founder of dance-punk label DFA Records. The group's style is a mix of dance music and punk, along with elements of disco and other styles. LCD Soundsystem is particularly popular in Britain, with two albums reaching the top 40 of the UK Albums Chart.

LCD Soundsystem gained attention with its first single, "Losing My Edge". Described as "an eight-minute, laugh-out-loud funny dissection of cool over a dirty electronic beat" the single became an underground dance favourite. This was followed by other well received singles "Give It Up" and "Yeah".

LCD Soundsystem released a double disc set simply titled LCD Soundsystem in February 2005 to critical acclaim. The first disc contains the album and the second contains re-releases of previous singles. The opening track "Daft Punk Is Playing at My House" quickly gained popularity and entered the UK Top 40 in March 2005 and was later featured on several video
game soundtracks like SSX on Tour, Forza Motorsport 2, Burnout Revenge, and FIFA 06. The
band toured with M.I.A.

In June 2005, the band covered a Siouxsie and the Banshees song, "Slowdive" for the B-side of "Disco Infiltrator".On December 8, 2005 the group received nominations for two Grammy awards in the Electronica category for their self-titled album and in the Dance category for "Daft Punk Is Playing at My House."This album was also chosen as one of Amazon.com's Top 100 Editor's Picks of 2005.
