About This Item
Though Deerhoof long ago established itself as one of the greatest rock groups ever to stride the earth-and if you think that's hyperbole, you haven't spent enough time listening to Deerhoof-they once again discover previously unknown combinations of candy-coated riffs, sideways pop hooks, free-jazz freakouts, and surrealist humor. Joyful and foreboding, cybernetic and deeply human, carrying an implicit note of defiant optimism in their refusal to bow to convention or received wisdom. A firecrackers-for-breakfast, intercontinental-ballistic-blockparty, household-chemicals-that-should-never-be-mixed, electric-jolt-to-body-parts-and-brain-chemistry, combustible love-letter to the human race. Featuring special guest Saul Williams on one track. Album Tracks 1. Overrated Species Anyhow 2. Sparrow Sparrow 3. Kingtoe 4. Return of the Return of the Fire Trick Star 5. A Body of Mirrors 6. Ha, Ha Ha Ha, Haaa 7. Disobedience 8. Who Do You Root For? 9. Under Rats 10. Immigrant Songs
