It would be a major understatement to say that the release of a new Deerhunter album is big news in the indie world. In fact, few bands have received as much praise or garnered as much fan attention as they have managed to since forming in 2001. So when news broke that the group would release their new album “Halcyon Digest” on September 28th via 4AD, you better believe quite a few fans started hunting to hear it as quickly as they could. While a leak doesn’t seem to exist as of yet, four new tracks were played at a recent live set at Pier 54 in NYC. Luckily for us all, the infamous bootlegger NYCtaper was there to capture the full set and has shared it with us all.
After you’ve digested this live set, you should race to get your tickets to see the band play at The Clubhouse on November 3rd with Casino Vs. Japan. The last time that I had the pleasure of seeing Deerhunter, they put on one of the loudest and most powerful sets I’ve ever seen at Modified. Judging by the sound of this recording and their new muscular lineup, they will likely top the absurdity of that performance this time. Tickets are available for the show right here at a cost of $15. Download their full set at Pier 54 at the link below.

Please don’t call me a “bootlegger”. NYCTaper.com is completely legit. We have either artist’s permission or follow an artist’s pro-taping policy, and we do make any money. All the recordings are free and always will be.
No disrespect was meant by that statement. I do understand that you are not a traditional bootlegger and it was a poor choice of words.. my apologies.
