Today's Quick Mention:  Tonight, I experience LCD Soundsystem live for the first time ever.  I hope it will be good, but I honestly don't have any reason to think it will or won't.  So what should I expect?  A dance party?  Or far too long electronic "jam" sessions called songs?  Tell me!  But do so gently.

I don't know why, but I kind of assumed I had missed out on the Social Studies full length.  And, as if that wasn't enough, I didn't even really try to find out if I had.  Shame on me, right?  Anyhow, an email yesterday notified me that their LP actually isn't out yet.  It's due next month on Antenna Farm, and below is a new tune to help convince you (and me) to pick it up.  Enjoy.

:Social Studies - Holler Boys:  The band's art pop leanings were fairly obvious in the track I shared last year (it was called We Choose Our Own Adventures), so I'm not too surprised to hear that style further explored here.  With that being said, don't expect some bizarro piece of music that you'll only understand if you have 12 music-based art theory degrees.  Nope!  Social Studies are about as accessible as can be.
