Created in 2005, Discovery is the collaboration of Rostam Batmanglij (the keyboardist from Vampire Weekend) and Wes Miles (The vocalist from Ra Ra Riot). They released their debut (and only, so far) album, LP, in July 2009 - music critic Patrick Sisson described it as "filled with innocent, lovelorn lyrics and the last 30 years' worth of guilty-pleasure keyboard cliches" while John Meagher (of the Belfast Telegraph) said it was "appalling".

so far, my favorite is 'Swing Tree' - though a little postal service collides with Jens Lekman with hints of a 90's boy band, the song is amusing, upbeat, and definitely an early summer anthem.
