James MurphyÂ’s first single in over a year is actually a cover, a damn right good one too, namely Alan VegaÂ’s (Suicide) infectious 1980 released “Bye Bye Bayou.” Following the release of his incredible 2007 “Sound of Silver,” naturally, there will be some incredibly high expectations regarding LCD SoundsystemÂ’s upcoming 2010 new effort. This latest track, however, doesnÂ’t offer too much insight on whatÂ’s to come – all I know is that itÂ’s very good. Sure itÂ’s no “All My Friends,” but its disco beat, pulsating rhythm, dance floor effects and well countered sexy vibe makes it one hell of a rehash. James does a fairly great job on reworking the vocals too, replacing Alan VegaÂ’s punk infused word play with a more soothing, disco approved take. Allegedly, the new LCD Soundsystem will be out around May 2010, although itÂ’s yet to have been titled yet.

External Review
One of the most compulsively listenable college rock albums of the ’80s, the Pixies’ 1988 full-length debut Surfer Rosa fulfilled the promise of Come on Pilgrim and, thanks to Steve Albini’s production, added a muscular edge that made their harshest moments seem even more menacing and perverse. On songs like “Something Against You,” Black Francis’ cryptic shrieks and non sequiturs are backed by David Lovering and Kim Deal’s punchy rhythms, which are so visceral that they’d overwhelm any guitarist except Joey Santiago, who takes the spotlight on the epic “Vamos.” Albini’s high-contrast dynamics suit Surfer Rosa well, especially on the explosive opener “Bone Machine” and the kinky, T. Rex-inspired “Cactus.” But, like the black-and-white photo of a flamenco dancer on its cover, Surfer Rosa is the Pixies’ most polarized work. For each blazing piece of punk, there are softer, poppier moments such as “Where Is My Mind?,” Francis’ strangely poignant song inspired by scuba diving in the Caribbean, and the Kim Deal-penned “Gigantic,” which almost outshines the rest of the album. But even Surfer Rosa’s less iconic songs reflect how important the album was in the group’s development. The “song about a superhero named Tony” (“Tony’s Theme”) was the most lighthearted song the Pixies had recorded, pointing the way to their more overtly playful, whimsical work on Doolittle. Francis’ warped sense of humor is evident in lyrics like “Bone Machine”‘s “He bought me a soda and tried to molest me in the parking lot/Yep yep yep!” In a year that included landmark albums from contemporaries like Throwing Muses, Sonic Youth, and My Bloody Valentine, the Pixies managed to turn in one of 1988′s most striking, distinctive records. Surfer Rosa may not be the group’s most accessible work, but it is one of their most compelling. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
