Formed in 2000, Faunts craft moody, introspective pop that blends ambient textures, electronic rock, and cinematic shoegaze. Their debut album, High Expectations/Low Results, and the M4 EP earned critical praise, with “M4, Pt. II” featured in the closing credits of Mass Effect. Their music has also appeared in NHL 2K10 and MTV series like The Hills and Laguna Beach.

Faunts’ 2009 album Feel.Love.Thinking.Of received acclaim from outlets like Pitchfork, Exclaim!, and Tiny Mix Tapes for its lush, emotional sound. With their Ostalgia series and beyond, Faunts continue to explore themes of memory and longing—delivering immersive, transportive performances that resonate deeply.
