Description
'Sound Of Silver', the follow up to the massively acclaimed and eponymous self-titled debut, is far from the typical difficult second album that some might have expected. It takes the LCD Soundsystem we know and love, and shows their rebirth as a great 'pop' band. Here repetitive percussion, towering walls of sound, driven melodies, lyrical hooks and occasional abstract and detailed string orchestration combine to create a sound like no other.

Press Reviews
4.5 stars out of 5 -- "The scene-stealing 'North American Scum' creates tension with Murphy's observant verses, then releases it through wiggy choruses. Spin (p.98)

Comments about CAPITOL Lcd Soundsystem - Sound of Silver:
Hindsight should be 20-20 for all of us, but most of us still struggle to look back and make sense of it all. Not James Murphy! He really gets it and it comes out in this album. All the pain and glory of a life spent beating your head against the wall, and for what? Definitely not what you thought it was all for. Only LCD Soundsystem can make that struggle seem pointless and beautiful at the same time. Highly recommend this album if you wanna lift your game.

Great album- beats, clever fun lyrics- even a weepy ballad in New York I love you to switch tempo- a rare thing for LCD Soundsystem. The Fall for the club set.

Comments about CAPITOL Lcd Soundsystem - Sound of Silver:
Great album, easy to listen to, awesome after a big night of drinking. But nothing that really makes you want to sing out loud.
