Gravy Train presents: DEERHOOF • www.instagram.com/deerhoof Though Deerhoof long ago established itself as one of the greatest rock groups ever to stride the earth, the furiously inventive quartet releases new albums on the schedule of a young band still hungry for its first break. Their latest album Noble and Godlike in Ruin is either a portrait of a world descending into monstrous hate, dehumanization, and dollar signs, or a haunting self-portrait of band-as-monster, singing tirelessly of love, increasingly alienated from that world. Songs crash and break apart, then reassemble in surprising and delightful new fashion; the music is joyful and foreboding, cybernetic and deeply human all at once. The world may be going down, but Deerhoof is going down swinging. foot foot • www.instagram.com/footfootband In the vanguard of the emerging Bristol underground scene, Foot Foot have drawn on the traditions of folk, math-rock, & discordant post-rock to produce their intricate brand of songcraft, creating moments of serenity & stillness before launching into fast, jagged rhythms. Their use of contrasts -indie-flecked songwriting with irregular, winding passages, or rich violin & vocal melodies with avante-jazz freakouts - have marked them out as one of the scene's most innovative & impactful live acts.
