Letting Up Despite Great Faults
Letting Up Despite Great Faults is an Indie/electronic music act founded by Los Angeles native Michael Lee.[1][2] Pitchfork has dubbed them "shoegaze-y indie pop."[3] Rolling Stone and Canada's Exclaim! have compared them to Postal Service,[4][5] while the consensus in the blogosphere has been more M83 and The Radio Dept.[6][7][8][9] The name stems from Blonde Redhead's song "Loved Despite of Great Faults."[10] Their first release was in 2006 called Movement, which featured a track, "Disasters Are Okay," on the television show One Tree Hill.[1][9][11] All songs are written by Lee.[12]
