Love-Lore

A breathless, live-in-studio medley of forty-three covers. High-speed collisions of sci-fi themes, jazz, and pop-culture history performed with jagged precision.

It's like someone threw the last 100 years of music in a blender and Deerhoof turned it into a 35-minute punk song.

A hyperactive, intellectual joyride through a fragmented musical history.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The jarring transition in track 2 where 80s synth-pop themes collide with jagged noise-rock percussion.

The nineteen-minute centerpiece of track 4 where the band weaves through Sun Ra and Parliament without breaking a sweat.

The final descent into the Velvet Underground and Laurie Anderson on the closing track, grounding the chaos in art-pop history.
