The new LCD Soundsystem album is called This Is Happening, according to DFA. (It's probably not named after this girl's blog, which may be getting a few more hits than usual today.) That's the Robert Longo-inspired cover up there. The album is due out May 18 in the U.S. on DFA/Virgin (May 17 in the UK on DFA/Parlophone). First single (and Best New Track) "Drunk Girls" is available for listening now. LCD are going on tour this summer, including a set at the Pitchfork Music Festival. We are ready.
