Deerhoof is a quartet comprised of half-male/half-female parts, playing guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards. The music on Holdy Paws seems very live, like the band is actually playing right in front of you in your room. The Blonde Redhead comparisons are unavoidable: higher-pitched female vocals backed by thick distorted guitar, angular drums, and very minimal keyboards. The single-note keyboard parts seem to push Deerhoof along to a slightly different direction. What really makes this record interesting is the anthropomorphism of the lyrics. Deerhoof is possibly trying to tell the feelings of animals in the perspective of the animals. They bring you into the animal realm, but never take you on an adventure, just kind of leaving you stranded. "The Moose's Daughter" has a Shellac sound, tough guitars drone in a steady rhythm. The melody comes through with a nursery rhyme style, which gives the song a haunting touch. "Crow," like many of the tracks on Holdy Paws, has a chorus that seems to break the repetitious nature of the verses. These choruses are a sigh of relief in the direction you want Deerhoof to explore more. The little doodles on the insert mimic the clashing feelings of playfulness and melancholy of the record. Holdy Paws slows down as it goes along, leaving the memorable songs at the beginning. It works wonderfully as an EP would with songs of your choice. ~ Francis Arres

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars a kick to the face...an imprint of a Deerhoof...
ah, the initial introduction to this band for me. I have now since blatantly shown my addictive affection towards Deerhoof by collecting (almost) the entirety of their studio outputs. However, when I first obtained this, I was thrown in a bizarre world of childish twinkle and devastating clamor. A group with a penchant for lurching grooves that sort of spattered, but flowed, and an odd interest in the melodic match up of vocalist's Satomi, a high squeak, to that of single note guitar lines and keyboards. There is another element to that spare match up. The choice of notes and the space between the strum of chords and the splattering rhythms causes this very unique syncopation that reminds me very much of a classical-like compositional structuring. Yet, somewhere in there floats a no-wave sonic flavoring that just mauls at the face with audible shattering and a jazz approach underneath somewhere (I can't pin it directly, though that's deerhoof). A band with so many flavors, you're wondering if your taste buds are indecisive. From sounds that could come out of bands like Unwound and Polvo, to arrangements akin to sophisticated musical scholars, and a pinch of knitting factory noise (that good ole' downtown new york)-we're talkin' DNA sound scraping. Deerhoof merges a pool of styles and moods for some of the most successful and passionate music I've heard. A very recommended sophomore effort that allows exploration of their career to only progress from here (as it has).
