giraffo Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I just recently am getting really into Friend Opportunity, I had gotten it forever ago but I haven't listened to and enjoyed it this much. Greg Saunier is an animal on the kit...he's got to be one of the most interesting drummers I've ever seen. I was just wondering if their past stuff is as worthwhile and if anyone knows what their plans are for 2008? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HighFives Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 it's all pretty much the same. milk man sucks imo. I'd get runners 4 next. my favourite is prolly halfbird but I don't think too many people like it. I actually don't even like deerhoof that much so prolly don't listen to me.

tapmyglass Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I think all of past deerhoof stuff is great,check out Revielle and Apple O', those two are my favorites Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WaronWar Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 All I have is Reville and Apples O' and they are a fantastic band. My friends always make fun of me for listening to them but it's really unlike anything I have ever heard before. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I was fortunate to find Apple O in a resale shop for a buck. Totally worth it. LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andshewas Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Halfbird is great! Halfmole Halfbird was my myspace name for a while. I haven't purchased or listened to Friend Opportunity yet, but I have been meaning to pick it up. Maybe it's a good day for a trip to the record store... I was really into them for a while, and I still really like listening to the Runners Four, Milk Man [fucking hilarious listening to Satomi sing ^_^], and the Green Cosmos EP.

tapmyglass Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Yes, very exciting news. Glad to see a Milwaukee date on their tour. Can't wait to hear the new record Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitty Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I wish they had a real singer. I hate twee. Their spastic electro-garage has some outstanding moments when the bass, guitar and drums are carving through some very odd territory leaving behind a wake of Television/Pavement/early-Flaming Lips riffage, but inevitably the vocals undo all that raw intensity.

So Long Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I know a guy who's really into Deerhoof. He wears a lot of bracelets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mfwahl Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I know a guy who's really into Deerhoof. He wears a lot of bracelets.Are those lyrics from a Flaming Lips song? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mfwahl Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Ooh, they're playing Tampa. If I can talk my girlfriend into seeing Deerhoof, I totally deserve a medal (but wouldn't the show be the prize) Shut up, voice in head! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
