We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed is the second full-length record from
Cardiff-based seven-piece
Los Campesinos!. It was released in the UK on 27 October 2008 on
Wichita Recordings. The band does not consider
We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed to be their second album, instead considering it a
mini-album or an "EEP" (Extended EP). It came only thirty-three weeks after debut album
Hold on Now, Youngster... and contains ten completely new tracks, none of which were released as singles. The album was recorded over an eleven-day recording session with
John Goodmanson in his
Seattle studio during June 2008.
