Argyle Heir is a studio album by the American indie pop band the Ladybug Transistor.[5][6] It was released on May 22, 2001, via Merge Records.[7]
The Austin American-Statesman wrote that "these Brooklyn nerds are at their best when they keep it simple, as on 'Echoes', a twangy number that sounds like an outtake from the Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo, or on 'Going Up North', a waltz instrumental with warm Mellotron tones and, uh, sleigh bells (which make several appearances throughout the record)."[8]
