Deerhoof - Vs. Evil (Vinyl LP, CD)

The tenth studio album from Deerhoof is yet another classic. Its been almost three years since the last one "Offend Maggie" blessed your furry earholes and that's a long time in music. Then again a week is allegedly a long time in politics so it must seem like an age to any Deerhoof fans. They remain as creative and hard to get into as ever. Deerhoof aren't everyone's cup of tea, what with their off kilter time signatures and the like. I reckon these guys are always doing really amazing things. They could easily just make bland "Quirk" singles or summat and watch the pennies trickle in yet they constantly challenge and excite. They have some really good song ideas at their disposal. One minute they will have shredded your mind with some searing guitar lines like on the excellent "Must Fight Current" and next second they throw some calypso madness into your face. It's all really good and the songs are just quality. The musicianship is, as always, totally interesting and unique. They scurry off in all directions yet have great amounts of pop suss. Its a rare delight. They still manage to write songs that are catchy and hold your attention. It's a right journey. My favorite tracks are "I did Crimes For You" and "Super Duper Rescue Heads" which if I'm correct is gonna be their new single. Some bands are good...not as good as Deerhoof though. This album is great and you WILL BUY IT!!! (only if you like Deerhoof). 100% awesome..7 out of 10 etc.....
