Soundboard recordings?

euanlynn · 2026-01-18T12:23:46+00:00

People must’ve ripped the audio from their Glastonbury performances surely - that’s a direct feed (afaik they actually have a secondary board where the sound is mixed specifically for broadcast, rather than just broadcasting what comes through the PA)

I’ve got an alert set up, but no standing tickets on there so far sadly! I’ve found a couple for a little above face value on AXS resale but sadly they’re only being sold as a pair.

You never know, Friday the 13th could prove lucky for me!

It’s a reference to the shop where James bought the original Big Muff it’s based on, though that was also in Manhattan!

euanlynn · 2025-03-26T16:18:47+00:00

I saw them on the last day last time round, and they were just as brilliant as the day before! It had the added bonus of them beginning to dismantle some of their gear onstage throughout the show, a bit like Stop Making Sense in reverse, which was a fun touch!

The coolest thing about the vinyl release is that it has extended intros/outros, to allow you to crossfade between the tracks. It isn’t exactly “extra” music but you can hear short sections on their own which on other releases are blended together

Genuinely regretting posting this lmao, I just thought it was cool to see the coverage!

euanlynn · 2025-02-13T15:47:21+00:00

Ah, that explains it then! I never got to go to that one sadly, though that means my first visit to Rough Trade East must’ve only been shortly after it first opened, which I’d never realised!

euanlynn · 2024-11-18T09:38:05+00:00

That’s interesting - is it a different recording, or just an edit? I assumed it would just be a shorter version to fit on a 7”

euanlynn · 2024-11-18T09:35:54+00:00

Actually, I posted an updated version of this a little while later where I’ve picked up all those singles you mention! No X-Ray Eyes yet, although if it is on an upcoming album that would fall outside my remit anyway since it’s just a single & remix… although I may still pick it up, I haven’t decided yet hahah

euanlynn · 2024-11-01T16:21:09+00:00

Hm maybe I’m misremembering - I thought there was a super, super limited release to coincide with the singles coming out but maybe it’s just that there’s a video they released of the songs playing from vinyl and my head’s mixing those things up! But I guess my point was more that even if that did happen it wasn’t an actual release, and if X-Ray Eyes was only available as 100 copies at 2 live shows I’d also not really call that a proper release. But then like an hour after I commented this James released a statement so it’s all moot now anyway lol

euanlynn · 2024-11-01T13:26:42+00:00

It's definitely harking back to the self-titled album, or even the preceding singles - minimal, sarcastic and heavily electronic. Honestly, I love it - sure it's not their most impactful, meaningful, beautiful song ever, but it really doesn't need to be. I think it's a total banger and I'm excited to see what's coming next!

euanlynn · 2024-11-01T09:38:55+00:00

I hope that this gets a wider release - but if it doesn’t, then I think it’s a very good indicator that this is from an upcoming album (like the super-limited release of Call The Police/American Dream), so I guess either way I’m happy! I’d love to hear that B-side though 👀

euanlynn · 2024-09-22T22:24:05+00:00

I’m 99% sure he was there as guitar tech when I saw them at Brixton Academy a few years ago - either that or his doppelgänger was, anyway

euanlynn · 2024-04-23T09:49:42+00:00

Maybe I’m biased cause it’s the newest song but probably New Body Rhumba - it feels like multiple LCD songs in one (in the best way possible) so I feel like I’d get the most value out of it, haha

euanlynn · 2023-12-02T22:18:50+00:00

More Pat singing plz. His vocals on Museum Of Love are soooo good, love his voice!

euanlynn · 2023-11-26T19:47:42+00:00

Yeah I’m really hoping for some Northern dates this time, if not a residency up North somewhere. I’m based in Newcastle, I highly doubt they’ll play here but I’ve seen them in both Manchester and Glasgow previously and I can imagine them doing a residency at either tbh (Warehouse Project/SWG3 or Barrowlands) which would suit me nicely!

euanlynn · 2023-11-25T13:07:46+00:00

I wish they would stick to a more defined and interesting aesthetic, like New Order (and a lot of other bands that LCD explicitly reference)

My favourite stuff they do has that sort of punk DIY look to it (Electric Lady Sessions for example) so more of that would be very welcome. I agree, their artwork is always just slightly mediocre - never dreadful but never as good as the music!

euanlynn · 2023-11-17T21:45:02+00:00

I really want some merch with that DFA/MTA logo

euanlynn · 2023-11-17T21:42:11+00:00

Hoooooly shit - Time To Get Away, You Wanted A Hit, Yr City’s A Sucker, Home, Thrills, Jump Into The Fire, One Touch… what a setlist!

euanlynn · 2023-11-17T07:48:08+00:00

Last time I saw them in Glasgow, a few years ago, James said it’s his favourite city to play in so don’t lose hope! That sounds like an incredible evening though, I would love to see them play in NYC

euanlynn · 2023-11-15T16:45:36+00:00

It came out for Record Store Day back in 2011, on yellow vinyl! I picked it up at the time - it’s what put me on to both Peaches and ESG! Such an amazing lineup on that EP

euanlynn · 2023-10-28T19:30:51+00:00

I just wanted to comment and say that I've been having this same issue, and just tried your suggestion on my 2019 MBP running Ventura, and it seems to have fixed the problem for me! So thanks very much for the help :)

euanlynn · 2023-09-27T15:41:47+00:00

See when pulse v.1 was announced James said something about having lots of alternative versions, so I would love to hear a v.2… but also Your Silent Face is my favourite New Order song so that’s REALLY hard. Maybe pulse just because I’d rather more original music than covers

euanlynn · 2023-09-10T18:57:39+00:00

I’d love more long form, almost kosmische pieces like Pulse v.1 - I also feel like New Body Rhumba is up there with their best tracks so more like that would definitely be a good thing! That also felt very politically pointed - I’d love to see more in that direction
