I got into LCD Soundsystem too late to think I'd ever have a chance to see them live, then this summer we made the trek out to Bend to do it and it was one of the highlights of my year. Happy 20th for their first album!

'LCD Soundsystem' Turns 20
It took a couple of decades longer than the man himself forecasted, but James Murphy finally and irrevocably lost his edge — which is to say, he became a target for overstated Twitter dunking. A few months ago, someone posted a video of Murphy talking about making LCD Soundsystem’s debut single “Losing My Edge” in the Meet Me In The Bathroom documentary, and he sounded a little too sincere about the aging-hipster anxieties that motivated him. The tone was like “lol was this guy serious?,” and my feed immediately filled with people talking about how LCD Soundsystem had never been cool and how millennial media forces had conspired to push them down everyone’s throats or whatever. It happens. It comes for us all. You make a classic cult hit about snark and aging and your own inability to hold onto social capital, and then you describe it in ways that summon dark clouds of online snark about your age and the disappearance of your social capital.
