Watch: LCD Soundsystem Enlist Arcade Fire For Madison Square Garden Farewell

Sunday, April 3rd 2011. Day one without LCD Soundsystem, and already the withdrawal symptoms start to kick in.

Last night saw James Murphy and company perform their final show at New York’s Madison Square Garden, with a huge four hour set list that saw them go out in style. For headline grabbing moments, getting members of Arcade Fire to ‘do’ backing vocals on ‘North American Scum’ comes high up the list - after all, if you needed someone to do the whole screaming crescendo thing they’re the best in the business.

For those of you not sat up all night watching the web stream - fear not, you can catch that moment above (presumably as broadcast on Pitchfork, captured by some clever person - Ed).

Update: we’ve also happened upon this quite brilliant clip of the final moments, as balloons drop from up high during ‘New York I Love You..’ - check that out below
