I’ll get this out-of-the-way. I have only heard LCD Soundsystem’s debut album a few times, didn’t like it, and dismissed the band. So it’s unusual for me to dip back into an album, but after watching a live TV performance on Jools Holland I picked up American Dream with some confidence. I’m so glad I did, a very strong album with no track sounding like another. It’s not a particularly happy album but it hooks you and embraces you with its sincerity.
Great album. A definite mixed-bag - 80s vibes, funk, pop, dreamy ballad, light rock. A good mix of sounds. I am pleased with my purchase and would buy again.
price and delivery... very good, inexpensive, and fast... no problem there. The album ??? Not the irresistible LCD you've come to know and love. .a few half decent moments on the album, but it's 95% filler.. Really dull uneventful stuff, none of the usual uplifting beats, soundscapes and anthemic melodies...

Arrived well packaged & in good time.
Definitely my album of 2017 & a fantastic return after retirement. If you like electronic & David Bowie style guitar riffs, you must buy, you certainly won't be disappointed. Now bought on vinyl, don't miss out :-)
I found this instantly likeable. The usual mix of synths and guitars and his familiar voice. Interesting songs throughout and plenty of musical references to Bowie, Fripp, Eno and Byrne. I don't know what I expected, but this will do nicely.
