History YMMV / LCDSoundsystem

* FunnyMoments: Much of Murphy's lyrics mock the stereotype of the kids that totally listen to his music. The irony is that they normally know they're being criticized, too, but don't care because the music is ''so damn catchy.''
* HeartwarmingMoment: "Home", the closing track of ''This is Happening''.

* BrokenBase: Due to a feud with fellow dance-punkers Death From Above 1979 over their name (Murphy's record label is "DFA Records," which stands for Death From Above, the original name of DFA 1979), some people who are fans of LCD Soundsystem have formed a HateDumb of DFA 1979, and vice-versa. People who are fans of both bands, along with some who are fans of only one, find the whole thing stupid and wanted the two to [[{{Forgiveness}} get over it]].

* SignatureSong: "Music/DaftPunk Is Playing at My House".

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Most stuff, but ''Sound Of Silver'' and ''This Is Happening'' stand out.

** LCD Soundsystem making their 2016 comeback. It was either a Fandom Rejoice moment, and long overdue, or a huge point of contention and James going back on his word. James, always the self-aware type, saw this reaction coming, and talked it out in a [[http://lcdsoundsystem.com/main/archives/793 blog post]] that won a few fans back.

** "Daft Punk Is Playing At My House" opens with James's funky "OW! OW!", leading then into a repeated electronic guitar riff. It kicks major ass.

* EvenBetterSequel: Many fans prefer ''Sound Of Silver'' to the [[SelfTitledAlbum self-titled debut]]. Many critics, too.

* SignatureSong: "Daft Punk Is Playing At My House".

** "All My Friends," especially when you listen to the lyrics.

** Even more, both bands appeared in the soundtracks of ''ProjectGothamRacing 3'' ("Tribulations" for LCD, "Black History Month" for DFA 1979) and ''SaintsRow2'' ("North American Scum" for LCD, "Sexy Results" for DFA 1979).

* EarWorm: If you get songs stuck in your head easily, do NOT listen to LCD Soundsystem. Not catchy songs, thy name is ''not'' James Murphy.

* MagnumOpus: ''Sound of Silver''.
** LCD Soundsystem is a MagnumOpus [[UpToEleven per se.]] Nominate them in front of any critics and they'll start gushing about them.

* MomentOfAwesome: That Madison Square Garden farewell show definitely fits.

* SomethingSomethingLeonardBernstein: Ericbandrakimindexbasicchannelsoulsonicforcejusthitme... '''''GIL! SCOTT! HERON!'''''

* BrokenBase: Due to a feud with fellow dance-punkers Death From Above 1979 over their name (Murphy's record label is "DFA Records," which stands for Death From Above, the original name of DFA 1979), some people who are fans of LCD Soundsystem have formed a HateDumb of DFA 1979, and vice-versa. People who are fans of both bands, along with some who are fans of only one, find the whole thing stupid and wanted (both groups are now disbanded) the two to [[{{Forgiveness}} get over it]].

** "Someone Great". Especially the video.

* MagnumOpus - ''Sound of Silver''.

* MisaimedFandom - Those who only pay attention to the title of "North American Scum" assume it's all self-deprecation or an anti-America song. Turns out it's actually pretty patriotic.
* MomentOfAwesome - That Madison Square Garden farewell show definitely fits.

* EarWorm: If you get songs stuck in your head easily, do NOT listen to LCD Soundsystem.

** Murphy explained his side of the story in an interview with [[http://www.pitchfork.com/article/feature/31332/Jukebox_James_Murphy Pitchfork]]. He claims that the label knew about the band for a while and didn't care that their name was the same. However, once the band signed to Atlantic, Atlantic refused to release their album if the band's name was the same as another entity. Murphy was OK with the name change to Death from Above 1979, but his lawyers weren't. They only backed down when Murphy said he wasn't comfortable if this legal negotiations would delay the band's album.

* EpicRiff -

* EarWorm: If you get songs stuck in your head easily, do NOT listen to the music. This troper found himself dancing along to the music he stuck in his head and made a fool out of himself.

** "Someone Great". Especially the video.
* TrueArtIsForeign - Averted and lampshaded as such in "North American Scum", namely that people assume that non-mainstream music in North America must be foreign.
