“Recorded in single takes with minimal overdubs, the San Francisco band’s latest album—its first sung entirely in Satomi Matsuzaki’s native Japanese—is a confident set of small epiphanies.”
“When you’re resolutely DIY and as prolific as a band like Deerhoof, eventually there’s nowhere to turn but the actual studio. Their first entirely recorded in a studio, and their first recorded in vocalist Satomi Matsuzaki’s native Japanese, shows the three-piece are still able to turn left in a career defined by left turns. That Miracle-Level is the band’s 19th in their 28 years and still innovat”
