**Meneguar** /mᵻˈnɛɡwɑːr/ was an [indie rock](/source/Indie_rock) band whose members had previously played under different arrangements and names but reached its current form in 2004 in [Brooklyn](/source/Brooklyn), [New York](/source/New_York_City). The group released the albums *I Was Born at Night*[1] and *Strangers in Our House* on the [Troubleman Unlimited](/source/Troubleman_Unlimited) label. Hybrid Magazine positively reviewed *Strangers in Our House*, saying that, "*Like a fucked up conglomeration of [Modest Mouse](/source/Modest_Mouse) and [Q and Not U](/source/Q_and_Not_U) with a little [The Flaming Lips](/source/The_Flaming_Lips) thrown in for artistic sense, the band walks an interesting line that ebbs and flows across the album, moving with an energy that is addictively daunting and dauntingly addictive at the same time.*"[2]
