Praise included Mixmag awarding it the title Album of the Month, a 9.2 score from "Pitchfork" and a 5-star review from "The Guardian". The album release was preceded by the single "North American Scum", which was released in February 2007. LCD Soundsystem's subsequent single "All My Friends" included covers of the song by Franz Ferdinand and former Velvet Underground member John Cale. The digital download "All My Friends" EP also includes a cover of the early Joy Division song "No Love Lost". In September 2007, the "A Bunch of Stuff" EP was released and the band went on tour with Arcade Fire. Late in 2007, the band released "Someone Great" as the third single from Sound of Silver and re-released "45:33" on CD and vinyl through DFA Records. In December 2007, there was a release of a 12-inch record containing b-sides from European singles for the North American market entitled "Confuse the Marketplace". Also in December 2007, the band received a Grammy nomination for Best Electronic/Dance Album with "Sound of Silver". The album was also named the best album of 2007 by publications such as "The Guardian", "Uncut" and "Drowned in Sound". The album was also nominated for the 2007 Shortlist Prize, where it lost out to "The Reminder" by Feist. "Time" magazine named "All My Friends" one of The 10 Best Songs of 2007, ranking it at number 4. Writer Josh Tyrangiel praised the "magic" in the song, saying that the song's "straightforward repetition of the same guitar, keyboard and bass lines, combined with lyrics about life without regret, and life with all kinds of regrets pays off with a punch about what we lose as we get older." The track was later named the second best song of the 2000s by Pitchfork. After finishing touring for "Sound of Silver" the band recorded and released a song entitled "Big Ideas" on the soundtrack of the film "21". This song was ranked number 63 on "Rolling Stone"s list of the 100 Best Songs of 2008. On November 18, 2008, Al Doyle seemed to suggest in an interview with 6 Music that the band would soon be discontinued. However, the following day both Doyle and James Murphy quashed this rumor, with Murphy indicating a new LCD Soundsystem album was on the way. Murphy began recording in the summer of 2009 in Los Angeles. Possible song titles mentioned at that time included "Why Do You Hate Music?"
