Reviews In Brief
Maybe I'm still a little miffed that
James Murphy and LCD pulled the ol' "LCD is
retiring-oh-no-we-were-just-kidding" charade but there is nothing overly
special or new about "American Dream". It's good enough with a few
standout songs, but most of the songs would have fitted nicely on "Sound
of Silver" or "This Is Happening" to a point where I wonder if they
were leftovers. Fans are going ga ga over it as are most of the critics-
and I am a fan- but I just didn't feel the edge or heard any real new
ideas and self indulgent Black Screen added to my indifference.
Most likely "American Dream" will grow on me a bit and I do hope they
continue on, but I hope they do with a little more fire in the belly.
