James Murphy + Spike Jonze. It was an inevitable and long overdue combination of musical + directorial talent.

What wasn’t inevitable however, was a cohort of Evil (and possibly drunk) Panduhs crash-tackling Murphy, pimping him up in a mini-dress and makeup, and binding him to his compatriots with duct tape.

One thing is official… if I wasn’t scared of pandas beforehand, I am now.

Once you’ve had the wits scared out of you by the inner workings of Jonze’s mind, head on over to lcdsoundsystem.com/thisishappening to listen to LCD Soundsystem’s new album This Is Happening in full!

If you really really like it (we do), then you can pre-order the album from JB Hi-Fi and receive free a LCD Soundsystem tote bag + a download of LCD’s Bye Bye Bayou:
