Whatever goes up, must come down, Bradford Cox of Deerhunter sings on dream-drenched single Desire Lines. But you might want to stay aloft for as long as possible at a Deerhunter gig. How you get high is up to you. In 2008, the Atlanta-based band went on a questionably short tour with the Smashing Pumpkins before cranking out another album and a ton of side-project work. Coxs solo recordings as the Atlas Sound, and increasingly his work with Deerhunter, have that Beach Boys-underwater feel of touchstones Animal Collective and Panda Bear. Deerhunter outdid themselves on this years Halcyon Digest, a warmly hypnotic follow-up to 2007s acclaimed Cryptograms. Call it delightfully dazed-and-confused. With Real Estate, Casino Vs. Japan.
