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

thanks all! i also listened to runners four for a spell, really enjoyed parts of it but thought it was too long

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.

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.

desapareceré!!
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

New album's out? They are weirdly easy to take for granted, maybe because they're so consistent and prolific. Not enough of a narrative there I guess.

Speaking of, how known was it at the time that Breakup Songs was about Greg and Satomi's divorce? Pub for the song on this new one about it being for Greg's second marriage got me by surprise.Anyway I'll listen soon.

They’re a band who are (for me!) a killer stray tracks band, I know that compilations aren’t as profitable as they once were but a 2xCD for Deerhoof would be awesome.
(Runners Four and Friend Opportunity are the exceptions)
This one is OK, has some high highs
