Indie fuzz-rock that shines in its simplicity layered with the strain of Hamilton Leithauser's lyrics. The band is somewhat polarizing as they stick with the same sound throughout their catalog, but they're in my top 5 favorites. The group is on indefinite hiatus, however, the members are still actively making music. If anyone is interested in listening to the group for the first time, I recommend starting with Lisbon or Heaven as they are the most approachable. Some of my favorite tracks by LP:
Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me is Gone
We've Been Had
Wake Up
Rue the Day
Bows + Arrows
The Rat
The Rat is easily their most well known song. Snare drum, you da real MVP.
Little House of Savages
Thinking of a Dream I Had
A Hundred Miles Off
Louisiana
All Hands and the Cook
Lost in Boston
You & Me (Probably my favorite album)
Donde Esta La Playa?
On The Water
In the New Year
Lisbon
Juveniles
Angela Surf City
Victory
Heaven
We Can't Be Beat
This song kind of foreshadowed their breakup
Heartbreaker
The Witch
The Love You Love
Enjoy

Her hipster cred is off the charts.

well she microwaves coffee so I told her she has to turn in her hipster card.

Such a consistent band. I love most of their albums.

"Song for Leigh" could be my favorite song of all time.
