The Walkmen

Musical Group

The Walkmen are an American indie rock band known for Hamilton Leithauser's distinctive vocals and atmospheric, post-punk-tinged songs. Their work includes the debut Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me Is Gone and later albums such as Bows + Arrows, Lisbon and Heaven.

Formed in 2000, The Walkmen are associated with the early-2000s New York indie scene and are noted for piano/organ textures, prominent drums, guitar delays and Leithauser's vocal style.

DeBaser reviews of The Walkmen highlight Hamilton Leithauser's distinctive voice and the band's atmospheric post-punk-influenced indie rock. Lisbon is praised strongly, Heaven receives mixed/negative feedback, and the debut Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me Is Gone is regarded as a stylistic landmark. Reviews focus on mood, instrumentation (piano, organ, drums, delays) and ties to the early-2000s New York scene.

For:Fans of indie/post-punk, those who appreciate distinctive vocals and atmospheric, melancholic rock.
