Indie Music - 'Deerhoof' - Wiregeek - 02-17-2009

Filing this here for later consumption, these guys seem neat - I downloaded Giga Dance, and it feels like Sabre music...

Saw them described in a webcomic I read as 'post-ironic', expanded to 'they write music about pandas and sunshine because they think those things
would be cool to write music about'

So far, I'm enjoying what I've heard of them.

IIRC, Deerhoof has a pair of identical twin vocalists.
