LCD Soundsystem has released its first new song since 2002, “X-ray Eyes.” The track is available digitally and as a limited edition white label 12-inch vinyl exclusively at the band’s shows and through dfarecords.com.
Following the announcement of “X-ray Eyes” and its impending release, LCD’s James Murphy revealed that the band has been working on its long-awaited fifth album, its first since 2017’s Grammy-winning American Dream.
The track was written by James Murphy, Al Doyle, and Nancy Whang, and produced by James Murphy for DFA Productions.
LCD Soundsystem celebrated Halloween last night with the first show of its eight-date Los Angeles residency, which continues through November 3rd at Shrine Expo Hall and November 7-10 at Hollywood Palladium.
The band will return to the Knockdown Center in Queens, New York for a 12-show residency over three weekends, November 21-24, December 5-8 and December 12-15. The run includes various live openers, afterparties featuring special guest DJs, a DFA Records swap meet, an on-site Four Horsemen wine bar and more.
To commemorate the occasion, the band is releasing a limited edition run of screen-printed 12-inch vinyl featuring “X-ray Eyes” on the A-side along with the never-before-heard trash can dub remix version on the B-side. Only 100 of these will be available exclusively each night of the Los Angeles and New York City run of shows and will be numbered and stamped with the venue and date. Five hundred will be available for pre-order via DFA Records. A general, non-screen printed version of the 12-inch release will follow.
