On April 2nd 2011, LCD Soundsystem played its final show at Madison Square Garden. LCD frontman James Murphy had made the conscious decision to disband one of the most celebrated and influential bands of its generation at the peak of its popularity, ensuring that the band would go out on top with the biggest and most ambitious concert of its career. The instantly sold out, near four-hour extravaganza did just that, moving the thousands in attendance to tears of joy and grief, with NEW YORK magazine calling the event "a marvel of pure craft" and TIME magazine lamenting "we may never dance again." SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS is both a narrative film documenting this once in a life time performance and an intimate portrait of James Murphy as he navigates the lead-up to the show, the day after, and the personal and professional ramifications of his decision.

Directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace

The film could just be James Murphy walking his dog for 2 hours and I bet it'd still be fucking brilliant.

I had never heard of this band or James Murphy until a friend sat me down with a few drinks and showed me the movie. Brilliant work. I'm sorry that I can't see them live anymore, but at least I get to discover their music. James Murphy - what a force of nature.

I 100% agree with that statement

[JudeIJM]

Similar, yet this movie actually delivered what it promised.

[THEYEBALLS]

I started listening to them in 2012 -.-

I still think this is one of the best trailers ever made, alongside the "Dead Island" trailer
