LCD Soundsystem return with a new single ‘Someone Great’ on October 22nd on DFA/EMI Records taken from the massively acclaimed and already touted by many as an album of the year ‘Sound Of Silver’ . With its emotive refrain and rhythmic precision ‘Someone Great’ was recognized critically as an album standout and has become a key part of their live set. Its release is backed by a spectacular array of new and exclusive mixes of other S.O.S standouts in the form Soulwax (Get Innocuous), Carl Craig (Sound of Silver), Sorcerer (Us v Them) and Gucci Sound System (Time to Get Away). Award winning Artist/filmmaker Doug Aitken is currently shooting an experimental short film for “Someone Great.
