I think the world sounds & polyrhythms on it are amazing. It took me awhile to really get the album, but after I got into it & also saw them play it live, I realized how impressive it was.

Jesus, I've been so out of the loop this year that I didn't even know they had a new album!

I'm kind of an on-again-off-again Deerhoof fan, as in I listen to them like crazy for about a month and then wear myself out on them so much that I can't listen to them for a year. But when I'm into them they're one of my favorite bands, and I can't believe I didn't notice this!

How does it rank against their best (which, naturally, are Reveille and Friend Opportunity)???
