LCD Soundsystem have announced details of their new album ‘American Dream’, along with a UK and European tour, NME said.
James Murphy and co recently completed work on their long-awaited fourth album, after dropping new songs ‘Call The Police’ and ‘American Dream‘ after reforming at the end of 2015 and spending much of last year playing acclaimed festival show at Glastonbury, Coachella, Lovebox, Primavera and beyond. Now, they’re back to play their first UK headline show of their own since disbanding in 2011 – confirming that new album ‘American Dream’ will be released on September 1.

Meanwhile, LCD recently previewed a new virtual reality experience called ‘Dance Tonite‘ after confirming that their long-awaited fourth album was ‘finally done‘.
“Hello humans,” wrote Murphy. “This is just a note to say that we’re done with the record. Like, totally done with the music and mixing. Just some art stuff to finish, but it’s been mastered already and the lacquers are winging their way to the pressing plant (which is, I think, where they’ll make the mothers and stampers, etc.). I’ve been wrangling the fastest route between final mix and record release for the past few weeks so that there isn’t such a lag, and I think it’ll be soon. 6 weeks is the very fastest, I think, but it will likely be longer than that. Just trying to get all the ducks in a row so that there’s someone with a catcher’s mitt waiting at each stage.”
