"DFA lynchpin and LCD Soundsystem honcho James Murphy returns with a brand new single taken from his highly anticipated debut album. As for what 'Movement' is about....in James' own words...'That's mostly about the 'new rock', which is a movement without the bother of having any meaning. You know a journalistic movement that announces, 'Rock is back! The guitar is back!' Whoo-hoo. But for what? Its like saying, 'The high-waisted pant is back!' Its fucking vacuous and the bands are tedious. They all sound like The MC5. I get excited about The White Stripes 'cos they're some people who are obviously trying to do something of their own. But most bands will never be good because they don't even ask themselves why they're bothering until its too late.' This is probably a good time to bring up the major influence on James's vocal style. The Fall's Mark E Smith haunts this album's more testy testimonies. James makes no attempt to pretend it's an accident. 'Movement' is released on 2 track CD and 7" backed with another new (and exclusive) track 'Yr City's A Sucker'."
