This 2018 single, released on the eve of the US midterm elections, is a cover of a 1983 track by the experimental band Heaven 17. Murphy’s rendition injects the original with his characteristic punk energy and a driving dance beat, making it a timely protest anthem.
- The single was released on November 2, 2018, just days before the 2018 United States midterm elections.
- This track was recorded during the sessions for the band's 2017 album, 'American Dream'.
- The single was released as a standalone digital download and on limited edition 7-inch vinyl.
Formed in 2001, LCD Soundsystem is the dance-punk and electronic project of frontman James Murphy, known for its witty lyrics and post-punk influences. The group disbanded in 2011 but reformed in 2015, continuing to release music and tour.
