Over this past weekend, LCD Soundsystem decided to cancel the final three shows of their 2021 Brooklyn Steel residency after initially planning to carry on despite a rapid increase in COVID-19 cases in New York. “You good people who want to return your tickets and try again another time have spoken, but so has the new info, the hospital capacity, and those of us in the band, crew, and venue,” the band wrote on Instagram. “We certainly had enough cancellations to make the vote count, but we also, now with all the new info, want to stop for our own sakes.”

LCD Soundsystem followed their 2017 studio full-length American Dream with a live album titled Electric Lady Sessions in 2019. Earlier this year, they covered Spacemen 3’s “Big City” at a Brooklyn Steel show and reissued their 2011 farewell show box set The Long Goodbye: LCD Soundsystem Live at Madison Square Garden.
