Les Savy Fav just dropped a new track, “World Got Great,” lighting up the scene from their much-anticipated return album, Oui, LSF. It’s been a hot minute since we’ve heard from them, and boy, does this song deliver. They’ve even thrown in an animated video, crafted by the Emmy-award-winning Jimbo Matison. Picture this: Les Savy Fav, battling apocalyptic monsters with nothing but tickle fights and a hefty dose of flower power. Sounds wild, right? You gotta see it to believe it.
Now, let’s talk about Oui, LSF. This album is breaking the silence after 14 long years. Mark your calendars for May 10th, folks. Alongside “World Got Great,” we’re getting treated to singles like “Limo Scene,” “Legendary Tippers,” and “Guzzle Blood.” And if you’re wondering, this masterpiece follows their 2010 hit, Root for Ruin.
Fast forward a couple of months after the album drops. Picture this: a warm Sunday, July 21, Les Savy Fav takes the stage at the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago. And they’re in good company, with acts like Alanis Morissette, Mannequin Pussy, and Brittany Howard, to name a few. It’s shaping up to be an unforgettable day.
And for those of you who like a bit of a throwback, remember Rome (Written Upside Down)? That gem found its way to No. 164 in “The 200 Best Albums of the 2000s.” Just goes to show, Les Savy Fav’s got that timeless vibe we all crave.
