This news publication in Louisville called Velocity recently published an article called "
Top 10 Unlistenable Albums Lying Hipsters Put on Year-End Lists to Appear Cool" and he included LCD Soundsystem in that list. I took objection with most of his list (except the top 2 which you'll note), particularly the last 3 & CYHSY....and also Mark Ronson because who was putting that on a list to appear cool (guilty pleasure more like....A Smiths cover does not a hipster make), but only included LCD Soundsystem in
my response since it directly addressed part of my own top 10.
The list included:
1. Panda Bear, “Person Pitch”
2. Animal Collective, “Strawberry Jam”
3. Deerhunter, “Cryptograms”
4. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!, “Some Loud Thunder”
5. Mark Ronson, “Version”
6. Devendra Banhart, “Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon"
7. Les Savy Fav, “Let’s Stay Friends”
8. Jens Lekman, “Night Falls Over Kortedala”
9. Broken Social Scene Presents Kevin Drew, “Spirit If …”
10. LCD Soundsystem, “Sound of Silver”
