This Is Happening is the fourth studio album by American rock band LCD Soundsystem. It was released first on May 17, 2010, jointly through DFA and Virgin Records in the United States and Parlophone elsewhere. It was recorded over the course of 2009 and early 2010 in the Mansion recording studio in Los Angeles. The first single, "Pow Pow", was released in April 2010, with a music video directed by David Ayer. Frontman James Murphy cited Bronski Beat, Eurythmics' Sweet Dreams, and OMD's Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and Organisation as inspirations for This Is Happening. The album is dedicated to Jerry Fuchs, who performed drums live with the band on occasion, in addition to being closely associated with other DFA acts.
