Night 4 of LCD Soundsystem’s five-night stand at the Hollywood Palladium lived up to the hype of the first three.

The songs remained largely the same — longtime favorites “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House” early in their 17-song set, “Dance Yrself Clean” and “All My Friends” during the encore — but James Murphy and crew switched up the setlist, as they have every night so far.

Early on, Murphy was adamant about the crowd keeping phone use minimal, wanting them to just enjoy and experience the show. Later on in the set he stated: “Thank you so much for taking it easy with that shit [the phone]. It makes the show better, I promise.”

The latter part of the main set featured three consecutive songs from LCD’s fourth album, “American Dream,” released in September. They went back-to-back-to-back with “Call the Police,” the title track and “Tonite” before ending with 2007’s “New York, I Love You But You’re Bringing Me Down.”

LCD Soundsystem closes out their Palladium dates tonight.

Setlist: Yr City’s a Sucker, Daft Punk Is Playing at My House, I Can Change, Get Innocuous!, You Wanted a Hit, Tribulations, Movement, Yeah, Someone Great, Call The Police, American Dream, Tonite, Home, New York I Love You But You’re Bringing Me Down. Encore: Oh Baby, Dance Yrself Clean, All My Friends
