Les Savy Fav is the Future of History, Now

I have had a torrid love affair with Les Savy Fav since 2000. I have often cited these Brooklyn-based miscreants as my "single most favorite band ever ever ever." If you have heard me say such a thing, I was not lying.

Last week, their faithful and equally as dubious record label (Frenchkiss Records), which so happens to be owned and operated by LSF bass player Syd Butler, released the first single - "The Equestrian" - off of Les Savy Fav's forthcoming album, set to be released this fall.

Now, I've been waiting for a new track off of this record for some time, so I am understandably excited. So, here are a few of my favorite tracks from their entire catalog to honor this moment and also to entice you to go out and buy all of their albums. Now.
