Does anyone here like (or have heard, maybe not like...) this band? I read an article about them recently; I'm intruiged, but I'd like to hear what some other people think besides, you know, the magazine reviewer.

that mean me squire?
Well, fwiw, I think they're sound. The new LP is grand apart from the last track...that oblique enough?

deerhoof are amazing

if youre going to get an album, id say get "apple O" to start with, as this is probably the best really.
the new album isnt as good as the older albums either, well i dont think so.

i like them a lot but i prefer their older stuff for the songs. album wise, bookstore is right, apple o' and probably milk man are the most cohesive records, but there are some real gems on the earlier stuff.

the runners four put me to sleep and the new one is okay.

I remember hearing a lot about this band when I lived in Boise, ID....are they from there? That was about 4 years ago, and I hadn't heard of them since, until Manhattan uploaded "Milk Man" in the Recommendation Thread. Really a bizarre sound they have, I imagine it's the type that grows on you.

So, anybody want to watch high school students put on an interpretive ballet set to a Deerhoof album? We're not kidding here.

After students from North Haven Community High School, in North Haven, Maine staged a ballet choreographed around Deerhoof's Milk Man (, the finished product is coming to DVD. The Milk Man Ballet DVD captures all the fun when adolescent dance and experimental pop collide, delivering the performance straight to your television. It's up for sale by the school to help raise money for a new building at www.milkmanballet.com.

I can't choose which record is better than another. I won't be like that.

I love the new album. Absolutely fantastic!


And, sokkar, you're so picky sometimes.

^ Exactly. That pisses me off. Why did they have Perth and not Adelaide?

I do love this band though. They're great.

They sorta sound like if the Banana Splits went to Oxford. I like 'em. I can only stand so much, though.

imagine the biggest "W", "T" and "F" you possibly can, then staple them to my forehead.

i went to the wrong high school.

Deerhoof will be debuting their new video for "The Perfect Me" on
