  • The Pains of Being Pure at Heart es un grupo estadounidense (sus miembros son de Nueva York) de música pop. Su sonido es deudor de varios subestilos de la música pop independiente que tuvieron su origen en la época que va de mediados de los ochenta hasta principios de los 90. Según ellos mismos reconocen, entre sus influencias se cuentan grupos como The Pastels, My Bloody Valentine, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Teenage Fanclub o Ride. También se les ha comparado con las bandas de la hornada C86. La banda está formada por cuatro miembros: Kip Berman (guitarra y voz principal), Alex Naidus (bajo), Peggy Wang (teclados y voz secundaria) y Kurt Feldman (batería). Inicialmente, el grupo lo componían Alex, Kip y Peggy y utilizaban una caja de ritmos pero enseguida se dieron cuenta de la necesidad de incoporar un batería y Kurt se unió al grupo, configurando de este modo la formación actual.
