Panther Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Deerhunter Microcastle for the guitar work alone on nothing ever happens this is a great record. Sure there are dreary moments but when the gaze kicks in it really kicks.Wheather or not you take Bradford Cox seriously as a songwriter is irelevent this album is pure joy for fans of noise and pop.

jff Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I didn't like Cryptograms, or either of their shows I saw back when they were just another small-time-nobody Atlanta band opening for other small-time-nobody bands in shithole Atlanta clubs. I really like the tunes I've heard so far on Microcastle, though. So much so that I ordered their cd yesterday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leo Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 If you have the opportunity, go see them. Great energy - sort of a wall of sound, controlled fury dreamscape. Well, like the albums. When I saw them last year, Cox was in drag and distant. This year he was wearing jeans and a flannel. What? Yup. Much more engaging with the audience. It helped that a majority of the room was dancing right from the start. One of the better shows I've seen this year. Very into all their previous work. Really love Microcastle/Weird Era, Cont..
