Earlier this week, LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy tweeted about how a new album is now complete and will be sent to the one, the only, the often very sexy Mr. Bob Weston (Shellac, Vocano Suns) for mastering. Here’s the exact quote: “mixing last song right now to send to the amazing bob weston to master. meaning, record DONE. i hope people like it.”
So when’s it coming out? A bunch of webzines and blogs have speculated March, with a few outlets reporting April, BUT THEY HAVE SPECULATED INCORRECTLY, MY FRIENDS. According to the one, the only, the often very sexy MOG, Murphy has confirmed a May release for the album.
So, what does all of this mean? Well, isn’t it obvious? James Murphy needs to be more clear about his release dates or he’ll lose his fanbase entirely. Step up your game, S’Murphy: a release date needs to be set before you master an album. Oh, and you should probably title the album, too. FYI.
