This is Happening is LCD Soundsystem's first full offering of new studio material since 2007's Sound Of Silver. The album was recorded all in white at the Manshun in Los Angeles and the DFA studios in New York and mixed at DFA.

Once again Mr Murphy and co drop something real special. From the opening nine minute expansive groove of "Dance Yrself Clean" to the DFA punk of "Drunk Girls" via the robotic shine of "One Touch" and the total pop anthem that is "You Wanted A Hit" this album does not let go for its duration.
