"The omni-present Greg Saunier, drummer for the fantastic Deerhoof (as well as having his hand tons of other projects (e.g., the Curtains, Nervous Cop)), allowed us to bother him with some questions of utmost importance to members of the UN. Deerhoof just finished recording their new album, Milk Man, that will be released in the Spring....."

"What is on the horizon for Deerhoof?

We have several releases coming out, like a split single with our friends, K.I.T. In March we will release our new CD, which is called "Milk Man". We just sent off the finished master and artwork yesterday, which is why I'm getting to your interview now!"

Promos have been sent out to interested (and uninterested) parties, first listens have begun. Initial thoughts on _Milk Man_?

Just picked up a really nice re-release of this on ATP records - 180 gram white vinyl and all that. They're playing the album in its entirety on Friday in London, but I can't make it... Bought this to make up for it.

This is the only Deerhoof I've really listened to properly, and it's supposed to be a bit of a misfire from what I understand? The bonkers instrumental witht he really long name is one of my favourite all time tunes though.

milkman isn't a misfire by any measure. i think it's one of their best albums, maybe my single favorite. it's certainly their proggiest, lacking the sugar buzzed, mile-a-minute brevity of apple O, reveille, but the songwriting is solid all the way through. even the weirdest and harshest tracks are catchy as hell. plus "new sneakers!"

i think it's one of their best albums, maybe my single favorite

yeah wouldn't consider it a misfire either, but it's definitely their loudest and tightest. probably their best.
