Deerhunter- Turn It Up, Faggot! (2005) MP3 & FLAC


"Born of concrete, born out of chemistry, comes out of chaos, blooms into infinity."

Named after a taunt the band regularly heard at early shows, Deerhunter's debut, though more or less disowned by frontman Bradford Cox, stating the band was "just really desperate to put something out," is a beautiful mess that rewards the listener if given half a chance. While Turn It Up, Faggot! is often described as an impenetrable noise-fest, nothing could be further from the truth. Yes, the vocals are virtually indiscernible and the heavy wash of reverb drowning everything creates an atmosphere of impenetrability, yet the melodies somehow surface, allowing songs such as "N. Animal," "Adorno" and "Oceans" to transcend the noisy undertow of the album. More than just an interesting glimpse of a great band at a formative moment, Deerhunter's debut is a great slice of noisy, tuneful fragmentation.

    W00t! Jammin' The Minutemen-Buzz or Howl under the influence of heat. Found some Huskers, Minutemen and the mighty Black Flag in lossless using the captain creepy crawl app hehe. Haven't heard too much of Deerhunter it is about time to find out now. Love the pink skateboard!

    The best part of music is something new to listen to. Eye was listen some old Sonic Youth and the Minutemen and this band doesn't seem out of place in that rotation. Smartass album titles are always fun too.

  3. Hi history lesson, those are good comparisons. Deerhunter's newer stuff is much less lo-fi and more shoe-gaze influenced. I posted their latest, "Halycon Digest" when I started the blog. Run a search; it will show up. Great albums both!

  5. Found that halcyon at the hfs40k blog, the cover made me laugh. Bands that don't take it all so serious are fun.
