Our Take

DEERHOOF have always been the rebellious aunty of the indie rock scene, never afraid to shake things up with their eclectic sound and off-kilter lyrics. Their latest offering, Mountain Moves, is no exception.

The album opens with the punchy "Slow Motion Detonation," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the record - bold, experimental, and utterly irresistible. Lead singer Satomi Matsuzaki's whispered vocals float effortlessly over the cacophony of guitars and drums, creating a mesmerising juxtaposition that is uniquely DEERHOOF.

Throughout the album, the band effortlessly blends genres, bouncing from post-punk to art rock to pop with reckless abandon. Tracks like "Your Dystopic Creation Doesn't Fear You" and "Come Down Here and Say That" showcase DEERHOOF's ability to marry chaos with melody in a way that feels both familiar and refreshing.

And let's not forget the collaborations on this album - from Jenn Wasner of Wye Oak to Stereolab's Lætitia Sadier, each guest artist brings their own unique flavour to Mountain Moves, adding an extra layer of depth to an already rich tapestry of sound.

In essence, DEERHOOF have delivered yet another masterpiece with Mountain Moves, a record that is as unpredictable as it is infectious. It's a wild ride from start to finish, but one that is definitely worth taking. So grab your headphones, crank up the volume, and let DEERHOOF take you on a musical journey like no other.

About the artist

Deerhoof

Hailing from the misty woods of Portland, Oregon, DEERHOOF is the eccentric musical brainchild of guitarist John Dieterich and drummer Greg Saunier. With an ever-evolving lineup and a sound that defies categorisation, the band has been delighting and confounding audiences for over two decades. DEERHOOF burst onto the scene in the late 90s with their debut album, "The Man, the King, the Girl." Since then, they have released a slew of albums, each one a unique sonic adventure filled with infectious hooks, blistering guitar riffs, and experimental flourishes. Whether they are channelling the spirit of 60s garage rock or flirting with avant-garde jazz, DEERHOOF always keeps listeners on their toes. Known for their energetic live performances, DEERHOOF is a force to be reckoned with on stage. Fronted by the enigmatic Satomi Matsuzaki, whose ethereal vocals float above the chaos like a serene lighthouse in a stormy sea, the band's shows are a whirlwind of noise, colour, and pure musical ecstasy. DEERHOOF's music has been described as everything from "math-rock on acid" to "psychedelic punk for the digital age." But no matter how you try to pin them down, one thing is for certain: this band is unlike anything you've ever heard before. So buckle up, dear readers, and prepare to dive headfirst into the weird and wonderful world of DEERHOOF. Trust us, you won't regret it.
