LCD Soundsystem Reunion? Eh, Maybe Next Time

It was this month, two years ago when LCD Soundsystem played their final show on New York’s grandest stage: Madison Square Garden. As much as we miss the band, James Murphy has been spoiling us with a retrospective photo-book and a documentary Shut Up & Play The Hits to celebrate the band and its accomplishments. He’s even talked about a possible reunion to record a new song. Although he has discussed this openly, I don’t think we’ll be seeing a reunion anytime soon.
