American Dream is the fourth studio album by American rock band LCD Soundsystem, released on September 1, 2017, by DFA and Columbia. It was first announced on January 5, 2016, the day after it was revealed that the band was reuniting after a disbandment lasting nearly five years. It is the band's first album in seven years, following This Is Happening (2010).

Prior to release, LCD Soundsystem performed at large music festivals as well as smaller shows to promote their reunion. "Call the Police" and "American Dream" were released together as the album's lead single on May 5, 2017, and "Tonite" was released as the second single on August 16, 2017. The album received widespread acclaim from music critics. The album performed well commercially and became the band's first number-one album in the United States, Canada, and Portugal.

"American Dream is an emotionally charged and tightly wound return, balancing bursts of dance-punk energy with post-punk moodiness and synth pop abstraction, powered by insistent beats and Murphy's distinctive vocals. It's an album made equally for the feet, the brain, and the heart, with moments of melancholy and release, sadness and joy, all delivered with an unsentimental, unpretentious eye and ear... No matter the style or mood of the songs, Murphy's vocals are the main attraction, delivering snaky asides, heartfelt emotion, and insistent chatter in his trademark fashion. The years off haven't quite mellowed him or made him a crooner; he still mixes the tart with the bittersweet like a master chef. The years haven't made LCD Soundsystem any less relevant or important, either. The times still require a great rock band (with synths) that can tap into the anxieties of modern life while also dancing the night away. American Dream isn't just a triumphant comeback, it's another great album by a great band." - Tim Sendra, allmusic.com

"James Murphy gathers his old gang of New York punk-funk virtuosos together for some truly festive paranoia in the masterfully pissed-off American Dream, he can't decide whether he's making a party album for the end of the world or an apocalypse album for the end of the party... Yet the music crackles with the joy of communal celebration, from the cracked Detroit techno of 'How Do You Sleep?' to the art-funk guitar squall of 'Change Yr Mind.' And in 'Black Screen,' he gives David Bowie the kind of chilly farewell that Ziggy Stardust himself would have appreciated." - Rolling Stone, 50 Best Albums of 2017, Rated 5/50!

Not a note on this album sounds like an afterthought.
