Untogether: By Letting Up Despite Great Defaults |
Letting Up Despite Great Faults (LUDGF) is an indiepop/shoegaze band based in Austin, Texas. In Untogether, LUDGF soothes its listeners with pulsing synths and rusty guitars.
The album takes its listeners on a journey through someone's nostalgia. LUDGF manifests this nostalgia with an interesting mixture of synth instruments that make up layers of magic carried by the steady drumbeats.

Members: Mike Lee, Kent Zambrana, Anna Fisette, Daniel Schmidt |
Aside from the tracks with warm instrumental segments, there are some tracks, like "Numbered Days" and "Breaking," that give a separate sound from the album. Overall, Untogether sounds heavily influenced by The Postal Service.
The wistful vocals are sung by composer Mike Lee, who also plays piano, bass, and guitar. His lyrics add to the nostalgia.
