Let It Die is the second studio album by the Canadian singer-songwriter Feist. It was released in Canada on May 18, 2004, by Arts & Crafts Records.[3] Recorded at Paris`s Studios Ferber [fr] in 2002 and 2003,[4] the album combines jazz, bossa nova and indie rock.

Background
Let It Die was welcomed as one of the best Canadian pop albums of 2004. It was nominated for three Juno Awards in 2005, and won two: Best Alternative Album and Best New Artist. A track from the album, `Inside and Out`, was nominated as Single of the Year in the 2006 Juno Awards. In 2012, NOW Magazine ranked Let It Die at No. 4 on list of The 50 Best Toronto Albums Ever.[5]

Let It Die has attracted a significant international audience. The album was originally divided into original compositions on the first half and cover versions on the second, though a reissue later in 2004 added a further original composition as the penultimate track.

Composition
Music and lyrics
Barry Walters of Rolling Stone likened Feist`s vocals on the album to `the jazz tingle of Peggy Lee`, and her melodicism to Tin Pan Alley.[1] Walters also said that Let It Die to draw influence from chamber pop, chill-out, postmodern folk, and Burt Bacharach, and described the album as `indie lounge pop`.[1]

Let It Die contains elements of folk, bossa nova, and indie rock.[6]
