Free Music Notes for Offend Maggie
Free Music Review: Great alternative to the pop/crap we are force fed
Hit: 5 Stars
I was looking around online at some different music sites trying to find some new music to get into. I saw this band and saw they had some favorable reviews and that they had toured with Radiohead before, so I decided to give this CD a shot. I have to say, its probably one of my favorite CD's of the last few years. Its extremely original, some what poppy, yet it retains an indy feel. The vocals are some of the most odd, interesting, and catchy ive ever heard. The guitarist is very original as well, he has great tone in songs like Snoopy waves. As a drummer i am very critical of other bands drummers, and i have to say that i love this guy. He seems to find the perfect beat/sound for every song. He is technical while still keeping the simplicity needed for the songs. Id say 90% of the tracks on this CD are great. You may need a few listen throughs to truley appreciate it, but i doubt you will be able to get it out of your head once it gets in.
Offend Maggie Poster
Say what you will about Deerhoof, but they know how to write a beautiful song. And ''Offend Maggie'' is all the more beautiful for the fact that it seems to come out of nowhere. For all its sparkling musicanship, it sounds casually tossed off like it was nothing at all. It's a new sound for the band as much as it's a new sound for pop music.While John Dieterich's acoustic guitar seems to channel Malian guitarist Ali Farka Toure, Ed Rodriguez's electric conjures classic Townsend. Singer/bassist Satomi Matsuzaki (with drummer Greg Saunier on harmony vocal) tells a plaintive story in which telemarketing calls are a metaphor for unrequited love. The bittersweet magic of this short song promises a major thrill ride when its 14-track namesake is released next month.
For those who have been following their remarkable career, ''Offend Maggie'' represents another Deerhoofian high-water mark, even as it shows another abrupt shift in direction. With these master gamesters, you can never guess their next move, but once they've made it, it somehow seems inevitable. One listen and you'll know ''Offend Maggie'' could only be Deerhoof. Two listens and you'll be in love.
