LCD Soundsystem: Yeah (Pic Sleeve) 12″
Proper pic sleeve reissue of this early LCD 12″ from 2004. Yeah was the follow up to LCD’s breakout track “Losing My Edge,” and was kind of a sleeper that has definitely stood the test of time and is worth a revisit. Here’s what we said about it back in ’04: Having released one of last year’s best singles (Losing My Edge), James Murphy is back with another brilliant extension of his LCD Soundsystem. LCD records seem to speak to those kids sick of the scene, who want their 12″ to retain interest longer than the next trend, but without sacrificing up to the minute relevance. An impossible feat, but listening to tracks like “Yeah (Crass Version)” will make you a believer. The song writing and composition are the foundations that the track is built on, with enough rock pretentiousness and sleazy analog to keep you interested. It takes a little more to keep our jaded ears interested these days, and this is might be it. “Yeah (Pretentious Version)” is a completely alternate version, offering a cleaner instrumental take on the track. Also includes the “Clap-a-Pella.” Recommended.
