Deerhoof - Miracle-level - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Wilsen - Sirens [COMPACT DISCS] Reissue date 04/28/2017

After all the accolades from press and peers, what's a legendary band to do? Forget the recording studio, rent out an abandoned office space in the middle of the New Mexico desert, set up, plug in and play REALLY LOUD. Starting with hardly a notion of the outcome, by seven days later Deerhoof had found (you guessed it) The Magic a raw and refreshing 15-song wallop of an album about what happens when you leave your comfort zone.

2021 . Over eighteen boundless albums as experimental as they are pop, Deerhoof has continuously quested for daring storytelling and radical sounds, creating a new shared language of revolution. 2020's critically acclaimed, overwhelmingly prescient Future Teenage Cave Artists explored fairytale visions of post-apocalypse, welding intrinsic melodies with absurdist digital recording methods. It's immediate sequel Love-Lore, a live covers medley, channeled futurist mid-century artists-Parliament, Sun Ra and Stockhausen, to name a handful- into a patchwork love letter to the anti-authoritarian expressions that inspire the band. Galvanized, they landed on their next record's concept This is Deerhoof's Inchbaroque gone DIYInch LP. InchWe wanted our own working person's version of highbrow, with all the operatic flourishes and twinkles and sparkles,Inch says Saunier. Deerhoof set to scheming, using their agility, wit, and outlandishness to create this exuberant ode to unexpected growth. Actually, You Can is a genre-abundant record that uses technicolor vibrancy and arpeggiated muscularity to offer a vital shock from capitalism's purgatorial hold.
