On April 29th, 2008, Brooklyn art-punks Les Savy Fav - probably the best showmen in indie rock - finally release a live album. After The Balls Drop is a fifteen-track document of the band's historic 3:00AM performance at Bowery Ballroom in New York City on January 1st, 2008. Loaded with old Fav standbys, and tracks from last year's raucous return-from-hiatus Let's Stay Friends, the digital-only release is a document of a band that, according to Rolling Stone, has finally "hit its peak." We think they've been peaking for years now, but it's hard to argue with Friends, or the wildfire performances from it included here.

In addition to cannon faves like "Sweat Descends" and recent winners such as "What Would Wolves Do," the album features Tim Harrington and company riffing through renditions of CCR's "Hey Tonight," Nirvana's "Sliver," Misfits' "Astro Zombies" and Pixies' "Debaser." Dream come true, right? April 29, 2008. Finally!
