sure, but it's def. a Greg-heavy account and biased towards him. Needs more of the other band members' input or content imho.

compromise: whoever is best at playing drums can post on the deerhoof account. it's meritocratic

"deerhoof is the best rock band of the 21st century" is a thing i have caught myself saying multiple times in recent months.

Love-Lore is so great. it might be my most listened to deerhoof release at this point.

It's the good kind of predictable, that thing where, because I'm completely out of the loop wrt new music, I occasionally fall ass-backward into news that Deerhoof has (somewhat) recently released yet another new album that is as good if not better than the albums they'd released previously. Although it looks like there's two of them to check out this time? Cool.

I'm still catching up with La Isla Bonita (though I did skip ahead to Love-Lore and lovelored the shit out of it). "Big House Waltz"! sheesh!

they're underrated. maybe i'm speaking for myself, i absolutely love them but kinda always forget about them

I always check in on the new records as they come but it’s the rare LP that sticks for me as a whole. Usually there’s a track or two that totally works.
This new record is among the stronger ones. On the last record - or one of the last records, anyway, it can be hard to keep pace - “‘Farewell’ Symphony” was a knock out punch.

offend maggie has become my personal favorite
― class project pat (m bison), Saturday, 23 October 2021 15:59 (two years ago) link
so weirdly, i got into them via 'the magic', found it really compelling and amazing. i've dabbled around the edges with some of their newer stuff as well as the more canonical 'classics' from early 00s. for those of you more versed, where does the magic fit in? suggestions on where to go next?
― global tetrahedron, Monday, 25 October 2021 16:03 (two years ago) link
the magic is one of my favs as well. i feel like la isla bonita is in a similar vein as far as funkier/groovier moments.

Apple O' for me
― Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 25 October 2021 16:18 (two years ago) link
apple o and reveille are my forever favorites but of the 'newer' ones I think this most recent release and Love-Lore are truly awesome
― gman59, Monday, 25 October 2021 16:20 (two years ago) link
thanks all! i also listened to runners four for a spell, really enjoyed parts of it but thought it was too long
― global tetrahedron, Monday, 25 October 2021 16:26 (two years ago) link
the best way to listen to deerhoof ime is several hour binges spread out over several weeks. they dont really have a "masterpiece" bc i think theyre categorically opposed to such ideas but you just listen to a grip of albums and think yeah they can p much play anything they want and it usually works.
― class project pat (m bison), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 03:38 (two years ago) link
like what makes them imminently relistenable is them being a band in constant conflict with itself. classic rock riffs into noodly jazzy shit. heavy noise with satomi's sweet voice. recognizable references to rock's past with fucked up time signatures and other detours. too trashy to be academic, too avant garde to be pop. they not a band that gets comfortable, and while certain stylistic and timbral themes remain constant, they really dont write the same song twice.

here is a list of 20 songs with tracks spanning from apple o (2003) to future teenaged cave artists (2020), just focusing on studio albums (plus one ep track and one orchestral arrangement for good measure). love-lore and other covers projects are a thing that deserve their own attention.

oh and i guess the first one is technically a live track. i rec'd that set too!

yes! i neglected to mention milk man, which is also in my eternal deerhoof memory. i worked at a store when it came out so i had dozens of extra milk man promo posters with the milk man guy:

i hung them up all over my second post-dorm housing situation, which also, somehow, included a joy division poster and oasis
