The moment to “Dnce Yrself Clean” is finally upon us.
LCD Soundystem is currently smack dab in the middle of the second leg of their 2025 North American Tour and have just 13 concerts and festival appearances remaining from now until New Years’ Day.
Unfortunately, as of now, James Murphy and co. don’t have an NYC show booked- unlike last year, when they conducted a dazzling 12-show residency at Queens’ own Knockdown Center.
However, there’s no need to spill any tears, Big Apple residents. The fizzy “Us Vs. Them” group will get close to the City when they headline at Asbury Park, NJ’s Sea.Hear.Now Festival, which takes place Sept. 13-14.
And, if you want to be there, our team got a heat check on what seeing an LCD Soundsystem is like live in ’25.
“I thought the show was great,” comedian and fan Eli DiSabato told The Post about the band’s Aug. 17 concert in Columbus. “The crowd was as jazzed as a crowd full of middle-aged, white neoliberals could be on a Sunday night.”
DiSabato claimed “North American Scum” was his favorite song of the night.
“They played it right before the intermission so everyone went hard,” he noted. “I’d just rewatched the cinematic masterpiece ‘Step Brothers’ the night before. Vibes were immaculate.”
More than anything though, the concert opened DiSabato’s eyes to generational differences.
“There was a guy standing in front of us who brought his teenaged son to the show, who could not care less,” the 30-something laughed. “The entire show the dad was dancing his heart out while his son just sort of hung out. In short, welcome to my dad rock era.”
If this sounds like your kind of show, tickets are available for all upcoming gigs across the contiguous United States and Canada.

Fans are likely aware the band hasn’t released a full-length’s album worth of new music since 2017’s “american dream.” Still, James Murphy and co. have kept busy contributing the joyous, longing “new body rhumba” to Noah Baumbach’s 2022 film “White Noise” and dropping the bleep-bloop heavy single “x-ray eyes” in November 2024.
In addition to those two tracks, they also lent their talents to the menacing “Dancer” from IDLES’ 2024 album “TANGK” and gave the thumb-up to Tom Sharkett’s tropical reimagining of the band’s transcendent “Home.”
