Deerhoof have announced they’ve recorded their first all-Japanese album, titled ‘Miracle-Level’.
The American outfit – fronted by Japanese singer Satomi Matsuzaki – announced the new album on Wednesday (January 18), sharing that it will arrive on March 31 via Joyful Noise Recordings.
Not only is the album set to be their first recorded entirely in Japanese, but – with production from Mike Bridavsky – it’s also the first of their 19 albums to be made entirely in a studio.
To mark the album’s announcement, the band have shared a new single ‘Sit Down, Let Me Tell You A Story’. Bursting with shreddy guitars, the track arrives alongside an accompanying music video, which was filmed in Tokyo’s Ebisu Garden Hall and directed by Noriko Oishi. Check it out below:
‘Sit Down, Let Me Tell You A Story’ is the second taste of the forthcoming album, following on from September 2022’s ‘My Lovely Cat’. See the full tracklist below:
