Deerhoof + Divorce

Deerhoof

Crazy electro-pop from California. Fronted by the bitter-sweet vocals of Satomi Matsuzaki, Deerhoof are the kind of band who deliberately lull listeners into a false sense of security, by slowly introducing a melody and then ripping it away before it ever takes hold. Backed by meandering synths and eighties dance-pop guitars the group have become a favourite amongst fans of the art-electro genre. ‘…the music of Deerhoof is anchored by sweet melodies and hypnotic rhythmic movement. Though it veers in and out of pop territory, the California-based quartet is just as betrothed to chance and intuition as their less listenable counterparts.’ - PopMatters
