Watch The Walkmen's final show before hiatus

The Walkmen recently announced their plans to embark on what they’re calling an “extreme hiatus”, with the band’s bassist and organist Peter Bauer telling the Washington Post that they’re going to take a break after their remaining live shows.

“We have no future plans whatsoever. I’d call it a pretty extreme hiatus,” Bauer said. “We really just have no idea. I don’t think any of us wanted to write another Walkmen record. Maybe that will change down the line, maybe it won’t, maybe we’ll play shows. ”

Now, you can watch footage from last night’s show in Philadelphia, via Stereogum. It stands as their final pre-hiatus show and maybe, who knows, their last ever.
