LCD SOUNDSYSTEM - Daft Punk Is Playing At My House

On a scale of 1 to 10… this song is the shit. LCD Soundsystem’s Daft Punk is Playing at my House is somewhere between dance music and a soundtrack that makes me want to burn things. Prepare to shake your ass, your fist or an infant while listening.

The first 3 seconds of the song explodes into an ear canal like its the final scene of a Japanese bukkake film. Soon after, the lyrical tapestry is woven by James Murphy.

The first time I heard this gem, I was already aware of the outrageous title, however I presumed it was just a clever title for another disposable instrumental club song. Much to the contrary, I was delighted to learn that the song is actually about the arrangements and necessary preparations to host an impromptu performance by Daft Punk.

Purchased enough alcohol to satisfy every kid for miles? Check. Relocated the home furnishings to the garage? Check. Is Sarah’s girlfriend working the door to prevent the unruly jocks from entering? Check.

I hope you enjoy and this song keeps you warm for at least one day. If so, see also North American Scum and New York I Love You, But You’re Bringing Me Down by LCD Soundsystem.

NOT SO FUN FACT: LCD’s live drummer, Jerry Fuchs, fell down an elevator shaft and died less than a week ago.
