 The Observer | OMM | Review: LCD Soundsystem, LCD Soundsystem
LCD are funny when they're AC/DC paying tribute to Daft Punk, or Wire paying tribute to ELO, or James Chance and the Contortions paying tribute to N'Sync.
Sometimes LCD brightly satirise what the musical world would be like if the switched-on post-punk music that was gathered up around the early Eighties of Factory, Sleeping Bag, Rough Trade, On-U, Postcard, Fetish and Mute had actually been as commercially successful as it seems from all the reviving and reforming and rewriting that's going on.
LCD is a one-man entertainment troupe that suggests a zonked and skronky universe where Brian Eno, Steve Albini and Giorgio Moroder are cybersoul brothers.

The 'tit' reference is provoked by a conversation about Losing My Edge, the 2002 single that launched LCD Soundsystem's recording career, skewered the vanity, insecurity and one-upmanship of the ageing hipster with hilarious accuracy, and remains, thus far, his signature tune.
So, when grabbing a first listen to LCD Soundsystem's first, self-titled album, and clocking Murphy's wry sense of humour, don't be fooled into thinking James Murphy is a jaded cynic.
Because, in the studio, LCD Soundsystem is just James and his multifarious musical, vocal and production skills.

 * Dusted Reviews - LCD Soundsystem *
LCD Soundsystem's "Losing My Edge" was one of the two hot shit dance tracks of 2002.
The other, of course, was the Rapture’s “House of Jealous Lovers,” produced by LCD main man James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy under the aegis of the DFA.
With zero name-checks and a less tinny drum machine, neither of these two tracks are as instantly accessible as the side that brought LCD Soundsystem to note in the first place.

Homages, hat-tips and disco-punk are the thing in LCD Soundsystem, brainchild of James Murphy.

LCD Soundsystem's debut album is a fun listen, mostly because of the second disc.

 LCD Soundsystem: self-titled - PopMatters Music Review
His one-man studio band, LCD Soundsystem, is one of the DFA artists that has gotten most of the acclaim, for classic singles like 2002's "Losing My Edge" and last year's "Yeah (Crass Version)".
So now it's 2005; I know people who count themselves huge fans of DFA Records who have decided that this album is crap, that LCD is over, that everyone cool has already moved on, etc. It was inevitable; that's the way of the world these days.
LCD Soundsystem, really really really love music." Which would be a fine and noble theme, especially because it's true.

Backing it up is the fact that James Murphy (LCD's one-man outfit) is the only recognizable human shape in the clip, throwing a party in an empty brownstone on an empty city street.
The first disc of LCD Soundsystem (the "album half," one could say), settles on a fairly approachable album format of peaks and valleys.
I still haven't decided whether or not to take LCD Soundsystem at face value (street value, in contrast, has priced me right out).

In a way, this track sums up everything that LCD Soundsystem is about (and for this reason I highly recommend buying the 2-disc version, in which you get an overview of LCD Sounsystem before 2005).
It's clear that Murphy has obviously listenned to way more records than you, knows more than you do, and has more "indie cred" than you do, but it doesn't stop him from making a record that is accessible, smart, and a helluva lot of fun.

It's fascinating: I can't remember the last album to be released that was so inexorably tied to indie-hipsterism and its fickle, ever-changing sense of what's "in." LCD Sound System are so cool that there's a critical/hipster backlash against them before they even released this, their first album.
That they include a bonus disk of the early singles that got them where they are today is impressive -- it says that they are willing to let the new material stand beside the more acclaimed older stuff.
In some ways LCD is like Scissor Sisters in how they change and evolve with each song, each new rhythmn, never letting the listener know what to expect next.

Half of the New York production team and label known as DFA, James Murphy has certainly been making all the right moves in the contemporary "pop" world, and this debut from his musical alias, LCD Soundsystem, confirms his place in the creative elite.
Elements of the Fall (particularly Mark E Smith's vocal sensibilities), Talking Heads, Pink Floyd, Brian Eno, the Beatles and even the mechanical energy of acid house, all liberally appear throughout, while Murphy's smart slogan like songs are lyrically full of humour, clever "hipster" sarcasm, and most importantly, genuine heart.
