History


PS I Love You, a play on lead-singer and guitarist Paul Saulnier's initials, formed in Kingston, Ontario in 2006 as a solo project. Drummer Benjamin Nelson joined in 2008. Saulnier and Nelson had previously worked together in another Kingston band, Magic Jordan. The band gained notoriety as a result of a split 7-inch with artist Diamond Rings, which led to both groups gaining favourable reviews.[3][4]

The band's debut album, Meet Me at the Muster Station, was released in October, 2010 to favourable reviews from Pitchfork Media,[5] who praised the track "Facelove" as "Best New Music".,[6] and also from Exclaim! Magazine, which included it on its list of Top Pop & Rock Albums of 2010.[2] Meet Me at the Muster Station appeared on the !Earshot National Top 50 Chart,[7] and was longlisted for the 2011 Polaris Music Prize.[8]

Their second album, Death Dreams, was released on May 8, 2012, on Paper Bag Records. The record was also included on the Polaris Prize Long List.[9]

The band released their third studio album, For Those Who Stay, on July 22, 2014, on Paperbag Records.[10]
