LCD Soundsystem announce mini Aus tour



LCD Soundsystem have finally announced some sideshows to go along with their spot at the 2008 Big Day Out festival. When not creating acclaimed albums as one half of production team DFA, James Murphy leads LCD Soundsystem, the electro-disco-punk-funk-noise-pop sensation behind Losing My Edge, Daft Punk is Playing at My House and North American Scum. Two years ago, Big Day Out got moving to the LCD DJ experience. In 2008, we get the full LCD band: guitarist Al Doyle (of Hot Chip), bassist Phil Skarich, keyboardist Nancy Whang and drummer Pat Mahoney. Their show, in a word: "bloodthirsty". Bring it on - LCD Soundsystem is playing at our house!
