LCD Soundsystem Is Overrated
I was so happy when LCD Soundsystem broke up. Then that pile of mayonnaise James Murphy got the band back together. And they started making flabby elevator music for bland hipsters again. LCD Soundsystem’s music is as boring and meaningless as their name. Ever wonder why people hate hipsters? Listen to this Pitchfork-prescribed s— and you’ll understand. It’s hipsterism itself distilled to its essential oil. OK, that’s a weird metaphor because oil isn’t sound. But you get the point. — Andrew Merrow.
