Will LCD Soundsystem Ever Get Back Together?

On the 2nd of April 2011 LCD Soundsystem played their last ever show in Madison Square Garden and ceased to be a band. I watched the live stream on Pitchfork with a feeling of inspired melancholy; part of me was sad that I’d never see them live again whilst another part of me was delighted that they were ending it so triumphantly with a bang and not a whimper.

James Murphy recently posted on the LCD Facebook page a sort of where-are-they-now? retrospective about how himself and the band are faring two years after calling an end to LCD.

‘pat is in the studio working on his new thing, al is on tour with hot chip and making new things as new build, tyler is off in berlin being tyler and dj’ing and making music and mixes, nancy is dj’ing in europe and working on new music with the juan and others, gavin and matt are touring and making things in the crystal ark, DSS just did that crazy beck sound and vision 360 thing, and i’m home moving furniture and cleaning up today after a stint of doing some dj’ing and producing. all in all it’s pretty good.

i fully respect and appreciate that people miss us as a band–it’s a huge compliment–but i also realize that we the band are just friends and we make things together and eat food together, and STILL ALL GO OUT AND DO THINGS, just not all together as LCD.

so come see us do our various things and say hi! it’s been so nice to get to know a bunch of really good people in a totally different context to the “big-ish band getting bigger” way we were a little stuck in.
thanks to everyone for being so amazingly supportive and nice to us.

i guess that’s my candy-assed thought for the day… now back to unpacking kitchen stuff.

No hints of a possible reunion from that but there was some rumours milling around last summer about them possibly reforming to record a song for a film score. While that never emerged or has yet to come out I still think that somewhere down the line we could see more LCD stuff. *Hopeful agnostic…

So with it being two years this month since the final show we thought we’d commemorate and celebrate LCD with a playlist of DFA and James Murphy related tracks. Dance yourself clean…
