Tracklist: LCD Soundsystem - This is Happening

Having claimed that this may be the last ever LCD Soundsystem album, I'm really excited to hear This is Happening. The press release for the album came out today, and calls the album untitled, and since we haven't had any denials about the name... This is Happening. Expect it on May 14th. He's playing Tripod on the 20th and 21st of this month, but tickets are long gone.

The video for 'Drunk Girls' is imminent, but James Murphy (no relation) has put up a teaser trailer for the song. Watch it below.

Tracklist:

Drunk Girls
One Touch
All I Want

Album News: LCD Soundsystem - This is Happening

Finally a title and album cover for the new album from James Murphy under his LCD Soundsystem moniker. The cover is pretty jazzy, with James in full-dance-funk groove, albeit a bit lopsided.

The album comes out May 18th. More news when it appears. The lead single, 'Drunk Girls' is available for download on iTunes and Amazon now.

Live: Electric Picnic 2010 Lineup

The initial lineup for this year's Electric Picnic has been announced. It's a very pleasant alternative to Oxegen, with many legendary faces due to appear at Stradbally, Co. Laois from the 3rd to the 5th of September.

The main trio are Roxy Music, Leftfield, and Massive Attack. Very dancy headliners compared to Oxegen's hip-hop flavour for 2010. It'll be great to see Bryan Ferry and co on the main stage, as well as the return of Leftfield after a decade away from the limelight. Massive Attack are also a fantastic live band, and will be promoting their latest album Heligoland.

There's tonnes of other fantastic acts playing, including some local favourites: the Frames, Imelda May, Paul Brady, the Villagers, Messiah J and the Expert, as well as Choice Music Prize winner Adrian Crowley.
