LCD Soundsystem will release two new tracks at midnight
Plus an update on the forthcoming album
New music from the formerly retired band LCD Soundsystem is on the way, according to frontman James Murphy.
Announced on the band’s Facebook page, Murphy shared that the two tracks, titled ‘Call the Police’ and ‘American Dream’, will be released on streaming outlets at midnight, “and i mean, literally, midnight. wherever you are. so, like, Australia first, and so on and so forth”.
He also shared his excitement that a new album is just about finished: “Seriously almost done with the LP. One more vocal and two more mixes to go. As eager as folks have been for me to get this done, it's got nothing on how much I want to be finished myself. It's been one of the most enjoyable records to make in my life, if not the most fun ever (I think it is, for sure, the happiest I've ever been making a record.)”
Aside from their live album from Madison Square Garden in 2014, this will be their first new album in six years.
In other LCD related news, the band will perform new music on Saturday Night Live, May 6.
