To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the day after 9/11, Deerhoof have valiantly stepped forward with an offering for the masses: a new live release titled 99% Upset Feeling, available as a free download from their website.
Featuring favorites from a wide swathe of their impressive back catalog as well as a cover of Canned Heat’s “Goin’ Up the Country,” the album should make you want to run out and buy tickets to see them live right away. Thankfully, Deerhoof are kind enough to have packed their fall schedule with lots of opportunities to do just that. Highlights include a stop at the Polyvinyl 15-Year Anniversary in Champaign, IL and a spot on the bill for ATP’s I’ll be Your Mirror show curated by Portishead and featuring a special performance by Jeff Magnum.
Deerhoof really do care about you and your well-being in these tough times. Do yourself a favor and never forget how much fun Deerhoof is live.
