LCD Soundsystem – This is Happening

Posted on 05/19/2010 by Harry

There are few things I love more than summer albums.

You know the albums I’m talking about. The ones that you crank to max volume in your car. The ones that make you roll down all your windows and stick your hand out. The ones that make you drive faster.

Also the ones that make you dance.

New Videos from Niente Peaches and LCD Soundsystem

Posted on 04/19/2010 by Harry

Last weekend my friends and I crammed ourselves into a room for seven hours and worked on the Charlie Christ movie. We got a lot of work done, a lot of planning done, and we also got some video podcasts filmed. Expect to see them up on the NientePeaches website in the very near future.

What we managed to do later that day was film a performance of Amazing Grace played on an iPad. There’s an entire post up on Niente’s site. Check it out here.

For now enjoy the new video from LCD Soundsystem’s upcoming LP, This is Happening. The single is Drunk Girls and the video is strange and awesome. Have a look.
