LastPass is online and KeePass is offline. Honestly, I would trust KeePass
over LastPass.

KeePass is opensource, freely available for multiple OS's and is actively
maintained. LastPass is a commercial business, they offer a free and
premium service, just remember that if they go all premium, you might
have to pay to get your data back from them.[1]

I'm a bit paranoid, but I go to great lengths to secure my KeePass DB. I
have an sD card with a TrueCrypt volume on it, inside that lives KeePass
in portable mode, with it's database. Which is also encrypted.

[1] The reason I point this out is when they bought XMarks recently, they
entertained the idea among the XMarks users about a premium only
service, I know the friends that I have gotten to use XMarks and I voted no.
XMarks essentially remained the same, but that can change at any time.
