Deerhoof: Rrrrrrright

Deerhoof

Deerhoof is a San Francisco based quartet. Here’s their homepage and myspace page, and an interview with Sponiczine. If you don’t have The Runners Four, it’d be worth your while to pick it up.

Finally posting these two continuous clips from a show at the Middle East in Cambridge MA in January 2006. Click on each of the animated images below to see parts 1 and 2:

Acid Mothers Temple

Here’s an excerpt from an awesome set from the Middle East Downstairs. Acid Mothers Temple’s homepage and MySpace page.

The Occasion

The Occasion is a Brooklyn based group with incredible musical control and a penchant for looping semi-random loose strands of tape during their live set. Stop by their homepage or MySpace page, or pick up their self-titled albumon Amazon.

Below one of the early songs from a set at the Middle East Downstairs where they opened for Acid Mothers Temple.

Swim Team: Big Head Explosion

From a Swim Team set at the Middle East Downstairs. The sound is for complete crap, such is life.

The Jumblies

I ran into a guy a while ago who said he bought the amp off one of the guitarists from The Jumblies, so maybe they’re defunct by now.  This is a clip from a set they did at the Middle East Downstairs for a Hurricane Katrina relief effort.
