Their documentary film Shut Up and Play the Hits may have seemed like the final farewell for LCD Soundsystem but now it’s been revealed that James Murphy is working on a live album release as well.
The band’s final show took place at New York’s Madison Square Garden in April 2011, documented in the aforementioned film. Now, however, Murphy’s been mixing the audio from the concert.
“I mixed it significantly differently than the film, because the film is mixed for your eye and the record is mixed for your ears,” Murphy told Rolling Stone.
It is expected to be released in early 2014.
