Editorial Reviews

2017 release, the fourth studio album by the alt-rock band led by James Murphy. American Dream acts as the band's first album in seven years, following This Is Happening (2010). Prior to the album's release, LCD Soundsystem performed at large music festivals as well as smaller shows to promote their reunion. Two album tracks, "Call the Police" and "American Dream", were released together as the album's lead single. LCD Soundsystem announced their breakup in early 2011 and also announced that they would end with a show at Madison Square Garden on April 2, 2011. In October 2015, online publication Consequence of Sound reported that "multiple sources" could confirm that LCD Soundsystem would be reuniting in 2016 and that they would be headlining "high-profile music festivals in the US and UK." Two months afterward, the band released the Christmas-themed track "Christmas Will Break Your Heart" acting as their first single in four years.

A shift from prior work, but an evolution that makes the band fresh

Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2017

Verified Purchase

LCD Soundsystem is simply a genre-busting band. With additional albums, you'd think it'd be easier to "slot" them. But this effort takes the band in darker places overall than they've been in prior efforts.

If you've heard of LCD Soundsystem from friends, I wouldn't judge or even start with this album as an introduction. "tonite" and "american dream" are most similar to the whimsical, rye, self-referencing lyrics. "call the police" more illustrative to prior infectious rhythms generated by the collective in all their cacophonous glory. But overall, the album is much darker in mood with James Murphy's punk-dad vocalizations traded in for more distortive effect.

Overall, it's an innovative, emotional and thoughtful addition to the LCD Soundsystem canon that its fans should appreciate.

Anyone who is mad the band came back from retirement should be well assured this is a band that has evolved. The "old" LCD Soundsystem is still here, but this is a collection of new themes, sounds and vocals that are a great addition to their prior efforts and well worth the long wait for new material.

Let's make a Joy Division record...?

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2017

Verified Purchase

Like this a lot. Post punk and post disco channeled from around 1980, think that is why Murphy said the album was "dark". Joy Division and the version of Bowie from Berlin and Scary Monsters are some obvious influences. Maybe that post punk vibe turns some off. Is Murphy still worried about losing his edge? James still is an unique producer. The only complaint could be the recycling of past ideas, but I won't complain to get another good LCD Soundsystem album.

THEY ARE BACK!!!! And in my humble opinion, better than ever! (I know I am going to get comments saying that so so previous album was their best!) This is a fantastic album but a bit different than their previous ones. This one seems is a bit darker and more serious but I loved it. A few of the tracks reminded me of this club I used to go to in Los Angleses called Das Bunker.

It has everything that made LCD Soundsystem great during their original run

Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2017

Verified Purchase

This album definitely exceeded my expectations of a band after their return from "retirement". It has everything that made LCD Soundsystem great during their original run, preserving their unique style; while also seeming a natural evolution of their sound. It stands equal to their other previous albums, despite the seven year gap...which is a feat very few bands have accomplished after a hiatus.

I love this album! I especially like tonight and emotional haircut. So pleased to have this band back on the scene. I don't normally listen to this type of music, mostly jazz and rock. Something about this band really speaks to me, though. I recommend this album.

Should be on everyone's Best of 2017 list

Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2017

Verified Purchase

James Murphy and co have made an amazing comeback. This record takes their sound to new levels. I hear new elements of Brian Eno, Robert Fripp and Talking Heads. From slow brewing anthems to all-out stompers, American Dream is a joy to listen to from start to finish. It's easily my album of the year for 2017.

I was disappointed to hear this band was breaking up a few years back. But we've all seen this before. They get back together. And apparently, they have it together. Easily my favorite LCD album.

My daughter is super excited about this gift. The extra large box it was sent in seemed like over-kill, but it sure ensured the record wouldn't be damaged.

Nuovo e "antico" sound Newyorchese

Reviewed in Italy on February 19, 2018

Verified Purchase

L'ultimo album degli LCD Soundsystem doveva essere “This is Happening” del 2010, o almeno così avevo capito quando mi sono imbattuto in James Murphy e soci, e ho pensato “sono arrivato quasi a festa finita”.
Poi, come spesso accade, uno ci ripensa (non è assolutamente una colpa) e allora scrive e pubblica un altro album (e poi magari ancora un altro?) e se il risultato è questo va bene così (a me piace, indipendentemente da quanto scrivono le autorevoli riviste musicali che acquisto).
Però devo dire che appena ho iniziato l’ascolto di questo “American Dreams” mi sono venuti in mente i Talking Heads di “Remain in light”. In particolare quando è partita la seconda canzone “Other Voices”. Come se la lezione di Byrne e Eno sia stata ripresa e riaggiornata ad oggi. Niente da dire, gli LCD sono estremamente convincenti e coinvolgenti.
Sono andato troppo di fretta però, ho “saltato” le sensazioni della prima canzone “Oh Baby” che è così delicata e ammaliante che già la terza volta che l’ascolto me la canticchio “sotto i baffi”.
Sicuramente la matrice “newyorkese” è ben presente, il post-punk, la new wave e l’art rock sono i rimandi principali, il tutto condito dalla “dance”, come nella miglior tradizione LCD (e si omaggiano anche i grandi “Suicide” di Alan Vega e Martin Rev). Questo album gioca un sacco con l’elettronica e con rimandi alla storia della musica. “I used to” parte come fosse una canzone dei Depeche Mode e poi le liriche diventano “strazianti” come se fossimo davanti ai Cure o ai Bronsky Beat. I rimandi e i collegamenti che si possono fare sono tantissimi e un collegamento forte è sicuramente al lavoro di Bowie. Ma è la forza di quest’album, la sua capacità di far sognare, di far perdere la cognizione del tempo avviluppandoti nelle sue spirali synth-elettroniche. Come nei nove minuti abbondanti di “How do you sleep” oppure nel singolo riempipista “Tonite”.
Un disco che non ti aspetti, almeno io l’ho trovato molto più accattivante del precedente This is Happening (che comunque ho consumato con gli ascolti ripetuti). Quasi settanta minuti, tanto dura, di sound di squisita matrice newyorkese, anzi di Brooklyn, con episodi che spaziano in un ampio orizzonte musicale ma non discostandosi comunque da una tristezza di fondo che è percepibile dall’inizio alla fine. Infatti il disco è dedicato a David e Mike e ai tanti nostri defunti (come scrive Murphy nelle dediche). La lunga pausa ha fatto bene, gli LCD Soundsystem hanno pubblicato un album che rimarrà nella storia.

Comeback des Jahres!

Reviewed in Germany on October 1, 2017

Verified Purchase

Oh, was habe ich mich gefreut, als ich vom Comeback einer meiner Lieblingsbands gelesen hatte! Die New Yorker Ausnahmetruppe um den genialen Irren James Murphy zeigt allen, was 2017 möglich ist: Eine tolle Melange aus Punk, Funk, Soul, New Wave und Rock - American Dream gehört sicherlich unter die Top 3 diesen Jahres.....
Song des Albums, für mich auch Nummer 1 2017, ist der Kracher "I Used To", gefolgt von "Emotional Haircut" und "Change Your Mind".
Was höre ich alles an Reminiszenzen, d.h. wer wird von Murphy gewürdigt: Joy Division/New Order, The Cure, The Rapture, Talking Heads und noch viele mehr....
Dazu die gewohnte Überlänge der Songs, die bei LCD schon immer ein Qualitätsmerkmal und kein langweiliges Aufmotzen banaler Songs war - das Comeback dieser Ausnahmeband ist superb und mehr als gerechtfertigt!
American Dream ist genial, phänomenal und begeisternd und nicht umsonst Platte des Monats bei den SPEX'lern😎
Unterstützt diese einmalige Band um den charismatischen Genius Murphy und kauft das Meisterwerk - die Jungs haben es mehr als verdient!

Brutal

Reviewed in Spain on May 23, 2018

Verified Purchase

Posiblemente es el disco de LCD mejor compensado y mas interesante desde el segundo disco. Se nota que el tiempo ha pasado y ahora las influencias varían hacia Bowie o un rollo más Post punk lo que se traduce en un disco más oscuro y denso. Edición cojonuda con dos discos de 180g y un gran libreto con fotos.

Muy recomendable.
