    For my fellow LCD fans out there, can't wait to check this out

    On April 2nd 2011, LCD Soundsystem played its final show at Madison Square Garden. LCD frontman James Murphy had made the conscious decision to disband one of the most celebrated and influential bands of its generation at the peak of its popularity, ensuring that the band would go out on top with the biggest and most ambitious concert of its career. The instantly sold out, near four-hour extravaganza did just that, moving the thousands in attendance to tears of joy and grief, with NEW YORK magazine calling the event "a marvel of pure craft" and TIME magazine lamenting "we may never dance again." SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS is both a narrative film documenting this once in a life time performance and an intimate portrait of James Murphy as he navigates the lead-up to the show, the day after, and the personal and professional ramifications of his decision.

    Trailer is kind of cheesy, but still cannot wait to see this. Doubt it will punk "I am trying to break you heart" doc by Wilco though. Still one of my fav's ever.

    Awesome. I always admire bands/athletes that go out at the peak of their game. I hope they show a lot of that final concert at MSG, I got to see the full performance on youtube before it was yanked and it looked incredible. I'll be seeing this.

    Can't wait for this. Really hope they also release a straight up concert film too, and hopefully an album with it, I'd listen to that constantly.


    I still wish I had gone to the MSG show, even though it would have been really hard to make. It looked amazing.

    But at least I got to see them before they went. By far my favorite concert ever.

    I'm a huge fan. I streamed the final show that night. It was awesome and sad at the same time. I can't wait for this film...and the subsequent release of the DVD.
