    Damn, Josh really did write Nothing Ever Happened. That's like, maybe their best track. It's historical, it's legendary. We lost a good one. RIP JF.

    God I can hardly think of any intro to a song that gives me such deep emotions right off the bat as Cover Me. Just using that for the beginning of this video makes me want to tear up.

    this was such a special time in indie rock. Deerhunter are one of the most underrated bands of this era. Microcastle is a classic, Agoraphobia is still one of my favorite songs to this day

    7:54 - I first heard Deerhunter's cover me (slowly) and agoraphobia when I was in 8th grade on my tutor's Ipod. I was listening to pop / christian rock bands and really nothing else. It's not like I instantly loved deerhunter but I was really into the chillaxed, depressed vibe from those two songs together. Deerhunter's first two songs alone influenced my tastes in music a lot.

    P4K first posted this right when the album was released in 2008. Had not loved Cryptograms (and had not discovered the Fluorescent Grey EP yet), but from the first note of Cover Me Slowly on this video I was hooked.

    Awesome to see the whole dynamic play out with Cole's vocals on "Saved By Old Times" so much time after the song was ingrained in my mind. I can't imagine the song w/o his spiel. So what if this is old? Microcastle is better than 99% of records, period. Now gimme Halcyon Digest in the studio!

      @ianturnbow7011 Před 7 lety +1

      Yup. Neither of Us, Uncertainly was the subject line of an e-mail between Bradford and Lockett, I believe. I guess they just liked that title. These Hands was written and titled by Lockett though.
      And then Green Jacket was also added onto the album, of course.
