good luck checking out the new lcd soundsystem album
sound of silver has leaked, but you won't be hearing any of it on pyf since it appears that everyone who has tried to share a little sample on their blog has been scolded (by dfa, james murphy?)... unexpected because, well, no one would give two shits about a new (or old) lcd soundsystem album if not for blogs and such hitting us over the head with lcd ss a few years ago. i like what i've heard, but i think i liked the direciton they were going with the 45 min nike track a bit more... hopefully they will still find time to make music in that vein. will definitely give it a lot of listens in the next few weeks....
allowing james to explain his feelings:
"i'm not angry or bummed at people... who downloaded it and listened to it, as i'm sure i would have done the same myself if it was possible--i just don't like the uploaders, really. some fucker got a copy in advance and had so little respect, and that sucks. i mean, some people in the BAND haven't gotten their copy of the record yet, for fuck's sake....i'd just like a little time to live with something before it gets blown all over the internet--free or not--and that's gone... don't feel bad about having it--just please don't give it to other people."
will do... what is the appropriate grace period before we can share this album without being selfish?

said: give it to me
said: sorry... can't disrespect the murph...
maybe i could upload a 30 sec sample or something...
said: haha "the murph"
said: i like this album a lot more than the previous one, whose only truly outstanding track (tribulations) leaked at least a year before the album, so as to leave me completely unexcited about listening to it. this one is really solid, i've been listening to it a lot.
does "all my friends" sound like the best song the strokes never made to anybody else?
i really wish he'd get back to releasing 12"s though, or making more epic disco odyssey tracks, etc...
