LCD Soundsystem: The Long Goodbye

Standup comedian Aziz Ansari ("Parks and Recreation") headlines his third standup special, where he shares his uniquely hilarious perspective on fears of adulthood, babies, marriage, and more. Ansari's look at life on the cusp of 30 years old is smart, unfiltered, and hysterical.

Set against the backdrop of 9/11, Meet Me In The Bathroom tells the story of the last great romantic age of Rock’n’Roll and how bands like The Strokes, LCD Soundsystem, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Interpol redefined a struggling metropolis and catalysed a generation. It also engages in a broader exploration of youth culture and modernity; the transformation of New York City in the first decade of the 2000’s and the cultural forces that shaped it. From a pre-social media internet, the dot-com boom, the rise of Napster and the death of the traditional music industry, to gentrification, the explosion of Vice and the hipster as a global phenomenon. This is a documentary that throws focus on the ways in which the world has irrevocably changed in the decades since.

A documentary film about the British rock band Blur. Following the band during their 2009 reunion and tour, the film also includes unseen archive footage and interviews.

On April 2nd 2011, LCD SOUNDSYSTEM played its final show at Madison Square Garden in New York City. LCD Frontman James Murphy, disbanding one of the most celebrated and influential groups of its generation at the peak of its popularity, ensured that the band would go out on top with the biggest concert of its career. The instantly sold out, near four-hour extravaganza featured special appearances by Arcade Fire and Reggie Watts and moved the crowd of thousands to tears of joy and grief. SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS both captures this once-in-a-lifetime event with stunning visuals and serves as an intimate portrait of Murphy as he navigates the 48 hours surrounding the show. Woven throughout is an honest and unflinching conversation between Murphy and author Chuck Klosterman as they discuss music, art, aging, and the decision to call it quits while at the top of your game.
