description
LCD Soundsystem will release their ELECTRIC LADY SESSIONS album on 08/02. The album is comprised of both new and old LCD songs, as well as three covers. Recorded live in the studio at its namesake, ELECTRIC LADY SESSIONS captures LCD Soundsystem at the height of the band's powers during the tour supporting their AMERICAN DREAM album. Their version of Heaven 17's 1981 classic "(We Don't Need This) Fascist Groove Thang"was the first track to be made available from the forthcoming album.
Released September 1, 2017, LCD Soundsystem's fourth album AMERICAN DREAM was its first to enter the U.S. chart at #1 and was one of the year's best reviewed records, finishing the year in the top 10 lists of ROLLING STONE, TIME, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY, STEREOGUM, NEWSWEEK, PASTE and a host of others-and won LCD Soundsystem its first GRAMMY: Best Dance Recording for the single "tonite."
The official video for "Oh Baby" from the album went live on 27/09 and has since amassed over 1.2m views. The video, chosen as one of Pitchfork's Best Videos of September 2018, was directed by Rian Johnson (Star Wars) and also features Sissy Spacek and David Strathairn.
