LP is the second album from lo-fi improvisational electronica band Holy Fuck. The album was nominated for Alternative Album of the Year at the 2008 Juno Awards and was nominated for the 2008 Polaris Music Prize. [11] Owen Pallett contributed to the album, playing the violin part on 'Lovely Allen'. [12] A remix version of "Royal Gregory" is featured on the soundtrack to Midnight Club: Los Angeles .
Several of the tracks on LP first appeared on Holy Fuck EP, self-released in 2007. Only one track from EP, "They're Going to Take My Thumbs", did not make it to LP. It went on to be used in Breaking Bad & Kenny vs Spenny . [13] [14]
