Jan 27, 2011Deerhoof have a major ADD problem, stylistically speaking, and it's part of what makes it so good. I sometimes get the impression their albums sound like someone made a compilation out of quirky post-rock bands, and then ask the same singer to cover all songs. They're just basically so creative on this album. So many ideas, with few, if no misfires.

Feb 9, 2011This album blends wonderful noise-pop hooks and beautiful layers to make their most accessible album yet. For a band that has been recording for almost 15 years, they are still changing their sound however they see fit. That is a quality rarely seen in a band. If you haven't listened to Deerhoof, I suggest you start now.

Mar 4, 2011Deerhoof vs. Evil is more tentative than the group's best work, but its consistently dazzling musicianship carries the band as it explores different themes on a new label.
