It's been more than two years since the last Deerhoof record Offend Maggie appeared, which in Deerhoof terms is eons, but the wait is almost over. The fantastically titled Deerhoof vs. Evil is out on January 25th and they've jumped ship from Kill Rock Stars over to Polyvinyl (although the album will still be released through ATP Recordings on our shores). The album is self-recorded, mixed and mastered, and includes a cover of an instrumental from the soundtrack of a greek movie. Polyvinyl describe the record as "The musical equivalent of hormones raging out of control, it explodes out of the speakers with its gawky triumph and inflamed sentimentality". Sounds suitably barmy and loveable. Track-listing is below. Click on the link to download first single The Merry Barracks; it sounds especially awesome through headphones.
01 Qui Dorm, Només Somia
02 Behold a Marvel in the Darkness
03 The Merry Barracks
04 No One Asked to Dance
05 Let's Dance the Jet
06 Super Duper Rescue Heads!
07 Must Fight Current
08 Secret Mobilization
09 Hey I Can
10 C'Moon
11 I Did Crimes for You
12 Almost Everyone, Almost Always
The safe bet is Deerhoof will be victorious.
