James Murphy already unretires, is planning a solo DJ set in June. Has he betrayed us?


James Murphy recently 'retired' his band LCD Soundsystem, but he sort of made sure every1 paid attention to them for 1 week before they were finally euthanized. However, it seems like James Murphy is 'already scheming' a next move 'without' the band, so he unretired and is planning on playing Sonar Music Festival in Spain.

Do u think it is 'too soon' for him to be playing a show like this? Now that he 'retired' do u think his solo DJ rates are 'way higher'?

Dance-punk godfather James Murphy recently laid LCD Soundsystem to rest with a slew of farerwell shows, but the singer will be returning to the live arena at the Sonar festival in Barcelona this summer.

According to NME, Murphy will helm a DJ set at the Spanish festival alongside acts Four Tet, Dizzee Rascal and Cut Copy.

Oh Jameys... Ur already back, aren't u? I guess u just can't stay away from the buzzosphere...

Why did u quit LCD? Did u just want to give up the band?
Were u tired of sharing money with them?
Were u tired of collaborating with them?

I wish James Murphy would come clean, and let us know why he REALLY fake retired... Until then, we'll just continue to scrutinize his every move.
