The story of Deerhoof is a long and complex one. Punctuated by band members leaving and angels arriving (Satomi – singer), audiences have nevertheless expanded as word about the wonderful complexity and energy of the Deerhoof sound has spread.
The title of their new album ‘Friend Opportunity’ is fitting as it could be described as an extended hand, a welcoming for those that may have considered Deerhoof ‘too “noise” for “pop”’. The newfound accessibility is undeniable, but who said consistent ‘listenability’ was a bad thing? Especially if none of the imagination is lost.
