Okay, maybe a 98 because 100 is *too* perfect and weird and at 99 why bother.

This is what's happening and it's freaking you out
I've heard it, heard it
And it sounds like the nineties
Who can you trust
And who are your friends
Who is impossible
And who is the enemy
These are the halls that we're presently haunting
And these are the people that we currently haunt
Push back the walls
Push back the calendar
We've got, we've got friends who are calling us home |

Other Voices basically sounds like a funky, uptempo version of this: |

Okay let's just assume "spoilers" in this thread.
So, Change Yr Mind really feels like a LCD dance-y version of a song that could have fit on Blackstar. His sessions with Bowie seemed to rub off. I wonder if it's one of the tracks that inspired him to get the band back together (particularly given that he's noted a talk with Bowie he had as one of the catalysts for bringing the band back).

I'm really excited for the listening party at Smart Bar tonight on those speakers, hoping I like this album as much as some of you guys.

I just had started up "oh baby" leading out of "pulse (v.1)" and.... yeah, it would have been perfect. I might just substitute it in from now on.

hi everybody. the record comes out tomorrow (well, tonight at midnight wherever you are) and last night at midnight we shared an extra track for the LP called pulse (v.1). it's not precisely part of the record, but it's an addendum (or maybe a codicil?) meant to go after the last track, black screen.
there are a few reasons for this: one, pulse wouldn't fit on the vinyl, so i didn't include it there (i think we'll put together a 12" with the other versions of pulse when there's a moment, but that won't be quick... tour and all.) and two, i really, really like this track.
this track began as a weird and fun synth collaboration between the amazing gavin russom and i on some very weird machines, and wound up developing into something else entirely, with pat and al and nancy, and korey playing congas. there was even more development which isn't included in this version, but that's for future iterations. tyler was in berlin, unfortunately. but there will be other versions.
it's a mix that we did a long time ago after the first session of the track, and it's grown on me as a track to listen to after the LP. it's super wonky, and i really didn't want to square the human-ness off of it, but just let it be what it is. so you don't have to tell me that it sounds super fucked up. i know.
anyway, we figured the best thing to do was just give it away for free. sure, you can still get it on various platforms, and it'll be on the streaming service things, but you can also just go to the lcd homepage and get it for free.
and there you have it.

just finished the album and listening to it now. don't really think it fits at the end, or the beginning, or anywhere on the album.

I definitely get a Bowie vibe from it, but less Blackstar and more Scary Monsters (and super beats!). |

I would agree with that (Scary Monsters). But I also hear Nile Rodgers/Daft Punk and Beck on other songs.

I've not heard that album so I can't say. The lyrical stylings reminded me of Bowie's contemplative tone on Blackstar was all. Regardless, I definitely feel there might be something there because the final line of Other Voices is that quote Bowie said to James.

Definitely check out Scary Monsters when you have a chance. |

www.setlist.fm/setlist/lcd-soundsystem/2017/vega-copenhagen-denmark-be2cda6.htmlTheir first set of the new tour. At the time of posting, track 12 is listed as "....Some new song" which truly triggered me. I'm guessing it's Tonite. Fucking lame Denmark "fans".... I was hoping for more new songs and some of the older ones to cycle out. I'll always be happy with this set, and I'm happy to see Yeah in there, but I want to hear this great new album played live. (I've already seen the singles played live twice, so I want the others specifically)

I really hope that by the time the tour gets back to America that they add more songs from the new album to the setlist. You would figure by now that James would be tired of playing the same songs for the past 18 months.
