Les Savy Fav (pronounced lay-SAH-vee-FAHV) is a New York City band that
produces idiosyncratic indie rock. Their style is heavily influenced by Art
rock and Post-hardcore.
The group's original line-up, formed in 1995, all met while attending the
Rhode Island School of Design.
The band is known for angular, abrasive guitar and bass melodies,
complemented by singer Tim Harrington's educated, poetic lyrics sung or
shouted over the instruments. Harrington's involved lyrics make
broad-ranging academic references to such disparate topics as Stockholm
syndrome, the architects of Carthage, and even palimpsests.
The band has a highly-regarded live show due to the antics of frontman
Harrington, including kissing multiple audience members and on-stage
wardrobe changes. These antics, however, rarely seem to faze the rest of
the band as they continue to play as if nothing out of the ordinary is
happening.
