As some may know, I've been a longtime Deerhoof proponent, but I was nonplussed to hear the previews. Sorry to poop on the party. This may well turn out to be better than Friend Opportunity, but it will not be as good as The Runners Four or Milk Man. And, of course, I can aver with near certainty that it will not touch Apple O' or Reveille. But hey, that's the way it goes. It's not like I was ever expecting it to be. I really didn't like Green Cosmos at all and things seem to be on a downslide for them. Still, it'll probably still figure into a top fifty or so for the year. But that's not because it'll be all that great but merely simply because it'll be better than a lot else.
