Shut Up and Play the Hits - LCD Soundsystem with Luca Morganti

Today's episode of Rock Docs is about "Shut Up and Play the Hits", a 2012 film about the final, uncontroversial, conclusive, never to be reversed ending of LCD Soundsystem directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace.

Our guest today is self-professed LCD superfan and New York guy living in LA, film director Luca Morganti.

Shut Up and Play the Hits, of course, is about LCD's 2011 retirement show at Madison Square Garden. The documentary features an interview with LCD mastermind James Murphy and journalist Chuck Klosterman, some backstage stuff before and after the show, and James Murphy's French bulldog.

And perhaps more Arcade Fire than one would expect or prefer from the vantage point of 2025.

Does this era of music and culture hold up? Is it too soon? Is LCD's dramatic conclusion and subsequent reformation the most (or least) interesting thing about the band? When will they finally put out their new album? All this and more in this episode of Rock Docs.
