After reuniting last year, LCD Soundsystem has been busy working on their first album in seven years. Last summer, the band announced it would cancel a string of European dates to hit the studio and work on their This Is Happening follow-up. Today, responding to fan questions on Facebook, James Murphy confirmed that the album should be on the way soon.

Then, in a subsequent comment, responding to an all-caps, "WHERE IS THE ALBUM" post: "working on it!" Later on tonight, LCD and former Hot Chip member Al Doyle confirmed the announcement in a tweet. Read it all below.
