Deerhunter are an American indie rock band based in Atlanta, Georgia, known for their unique songwriting.
In 2005 they released ''Turn It Up Faggot'' to mostly positive reviews. They quickly dispensed with the sound because of the “negativity” surrounding the recording process, caused by the death of the original bassist, Justin Bosworth, in a freak skateboarding accident. Their next two albums faced some lukewarm to generally positive critical response, usually looking at Bradford Cox for his interesting lyrics and vocal melodies. In 2010 they released ''Halcyon Digest'' to enthusiastic reviews. It was on this album where Deerhunter picked up a folk-influenced sound.
The band's current lineup consists of Bradford Cox, Moses Archuleta, Josh Fauver, and Lockett Pundt.

* [[Concept Album]] – The “unified theme” variation.
** ''Cryptograms'' was written, according to Bradford Cox, with the intention of "evoking a feeling of someone who's woken up after being strung out one too many nights…It's the feeling of being lovesick and very spaced-out."
** ''Halcyon Digest'' also follows this. Says Bradford Cox:

* [[Epic Rocking]] – “Octet”, “Nothing Ever Happened”, “Calvary Scars II/Aux Out”, “Desire Lines”, and “He Would Have Laughed”.
* [[Instrumentals]] – “Intro”, “White Ink”, “Red Ink”, “Tape Hiss Orchid”, “Cover Me (Slowly)”.
Line 34 ⟶ 35:
* [[Perishing Alt Rock Voice]] – Due in part to Bradford Cox’s congestion.
* [[Shoegaze]] – Heavily influenced by shoegaze, anyway, most evidently on ''Cryptograms''.
* [[
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]] - Sort of. Lockett Pundt and Bradford Cox. According to interviews, Lockett is straight, and even though Bradford isn't they never the less are very close friends that spend a lot of time with one another with both of them staying in the same hotel rooms while on tour and the rest of the band staying in other rooms.
