LCD Soundsystem Debut Album

Debut Album released January 24th 2004 — DFA / EMI Records

January 24th 2005 marks the long awaited eponymous debut album release from LCD SOUNDSYSTEM; aka James Murphy; one half of the infamous New York production duo/label that is the DFA and creator of dancefloor anthems like 'Losing My Edge', Yeah', 'Beat Connection',
'Give it up' and most recently 'Movement' to name but five.

James was born in 1970, and raised in Princeton Junction, New Jersey, an overspill suburb that exists in the shadow of the famous Princeton Ivy League College, literally and otherwise. "There was no movie house, recreation centre or bowling alley, so kids just got wasted. By the time I left in 1988/89 it had transformed into a wildly more affluent American suburb. But the place just left me with a staggering inferiority complex."

LCD SOUNDSYSTEM is his stunning debut spread across two discs. The first features nine new tracks, from the frenzied trance punk throb of recent single 'Movement' to the pulsing opener and second single 'Daft Punk Is Playing At My House,' which sets the tone for an album that mixes James's trademark hook-laden punk/funk/house hootenannies with the kind of melodic ruminations that many won't be expecting.
