Additional InformationAfter a short "retirement," the band returns with a set that blends melancholy synth ballads with wall-rattling dance rock, aka business as usual.

Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "James Murphy and his wrecking crew of New York punk-disco marauders don't waste a moment on the superb AMERICAN DREAM -- it's a relentless, expansive, maddeningly funny set of songs asking how a lifetime of good intentions and hard work can blow up into such a mess.", "What is a surprise is that LCD is now more of a democracy with each member in post-punk mode and contributing thusly, resulting in a theatrical sound that’s thicker, deeper and louder than in previous settings...", "It’s a melancholy collection, wound tight with opaque lyrics; Murphy has always understood that the best pop songs mean nothing and everything at once.", "LCD’s usual touchstones are everywhere: love, loneliness, the bottomless quagmire of what constitutes cool....Put AMERICAN on, blow out the speakers, and dance yourself clean." -- Grade: A-, "They’re working in a darker mood, playing with denser electronics and headier explorations of themes like mortality, friendship, and aging that have always played into their music.", "It’s a beautiful work of art about aging, regret and an arduous search for meaning. It’s an expansive record that explores a variety of sounds and themes, but it never feels confused or lost."
