Deerhoof have their antenna up, receiving frequencies from all over, and with their penchant for breaking new and previously unrecognized taboos with each release, we present you with Friend Opportunity. Following the successes of Milk Man and The Runners Four, Friend Opportunity is a feat of reinvention that could only come from artists willing to rethink everything, proof that their outrageous musical vision consistently turns out to be wider than anticipated. With Deerhoof, the labels don't stick.

Further evidence: They've toured with The Flaming Lips and with Radiohead, love hip hop, The Shins, and Of Montreal, their music is featured in Dedication, the directorial debut of actor Justin Theroux, due out in 2007 and starring Billy Crudup and Mandy Moore. And in another surreal twist their album Milk Man was performed as an elementary school ballet at the North Haven Community School in Maine. Look for the performance to be out on DVD, yes it will be on DVD. As Mike Watt once said of his band the Minutemen, Deerhoof don't write songs, they write rivers.
