Review:

Shut Up and Play the Hits offers music fans a glimpse into the final days of LCD Soundsystem, a hugely influential band who released three studio albums and fifteen successful singes across their ten year career. Culminating in their final sell-out show, a four-hour finale at Madison Square Garden, this film proves that 'rockumentaries' don’t need explosive fall-outs or displays of hedonism to make compelling viewing.

Whether you're a fan of LCD Soundsystem, or want to watch an unorthodox, occasionally moving and often breathtaking documentary, Shut Up and Play the Hits will not disappoint.

Special ticket prices apply: £2.50 for WSC members and Offbeat members; £3.50 for University members; £4 for externals.
