"Equal parts funeral and party, the wonderful LCD Soundsystem documentary/concert film Shut Up And Play The Hits chronicles for posterity the revered dance band’s final concert in front of a sold-out crowd at Madison Square Garden. Like D.A, Pennebaker’s Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars,the film documents an artist intent on going out on top... As the similarly transcendent earlier Sundance documentary Sugar Man illustrated indelibly, that is how legends are made. At its ecstatic, delirious best, Shut Up And Play The Hits is a profoundly spiritual and emotional experience..."
Looking forward to seeing this movie! Looks like they went out in style.
