Deerhunter/Battles @ South Street Seaport, NYC 8/31/07

For the better part of the long Labor Day weekend, NYC was refreshingly manageable, its population decreased by 30%, according to our full-of-shit metrics. Not so for the Friday night kicking off the holiday at the Seaport, though it's... CONTINUE READING DEERHUNTER/BATTLES @ SOUTH STREET SEAPORT, NYC 8/31/07»

Deerhunting Season

Just when we thought it was safe to stop reading Bradford Cox's blog, he reminds us why it's quickly becoming one of the most engrossing stops on the Internet. First came the Poop Journal (maybe more "gross" than engrossing), then... CONTINUE READING DEERHUNTING SEASON»

Dan Deacon/Deerhunter @ A Warehouse In Chicago 7/16/07 (& Pitchfork Festival Pics)

Still tired from our Chicago trip this weekend, and really it's all this 2AM show's fault. Word floated through the Pitchfork Festival on Sunday that a warehouse at Wolcott and Walnut (mnemonic device of the day: "Think 'Wall' ... then...

Pitchfork Music Festival 2007 [Sunday; 7/15] Rating: 6.2

Wouldn't be a series of Pitchfork scores without at least one bearing little-to-no relation to the verbiage that followed, right? Well, day last of this year's P4K party in Union Park was another fine one, bringing two more mind-bending... CONTINUE READING PITCHFORK MUSIC FESTIVAL 2007 [SUNDAY; 7/15] RATING: 6.2»

Behind The Music: Deerhunter

How could we have missed Deerhunter's Wednesday night set at Bowery? Village Voice makes it sound positively historic:Pretty sure what I saw last night when Deerhunter headlined the Bowery Ballroom is going to be in a book or a documentary... CONTINUE READING BEHIND THE MUSIC: DEERHUNTER»

Deerhunter: "Don't Even Think About Pulling This Child Pornography Shit With Me..."

Deerhunter have been pushing boundaries from the get-go, calling their debut album Turn It Up Faggot, messing around with gender roles and fake blood, and most shockingly, working at American Apparel.

New Deerhunter - "After Class"

You may not have noticed this, but P4K is rather obsessed with all things Deerhunter. Not pointing fingers, everybody's prone to playing favorites (hey, remind us, we have to tell you 'bout this Soofyan guy ... repeatedly) -- and our... CONTINUE READING NEW DEERHUNTER - "AFTER CLASS"»

Quit Your Day Job: Deerhunter

Deerhunter's been buzzing loudly since the release of their sophomore album Cryptograms earlier this year. The Fluorescent Grey EP helped maintain the chatter some, but it's the Atlanta quintet's live presence -- dresses, blood, and blowjobs, but also old-fashioned chops,...

Deerhunter On Dresses

Great interview with Deerhunter's Bradford Cox over at P4K today. The band's breakthrough Cryptograms felt uneven to us ... until we saw 'em at SXSW, at which point Bradford's amp-perched shrieking-gargoyle routine had us floored. (Best set of the fest,... CONTINUE READING DEERHUNTER ON DRESSES»
