66.

Deerhunter
Microcastle/Weird Era Cont.
(Kranky, 2008)

You can't seperate Microcastle from Weird Era Cont. It isn't that they don't have their own nuances and individuality, but together, referencing one another, they are simply divine. Deerhunter's simplification and whole hearted embrace of pop on this (these) release(s) provides some of the most gorgeous moments of straight hooks of the decade. There is bliss around every corner. The release of Microcastle/Weird Era Cont. cements Deerhunter as one of the most important bands of the decade without a doubt.

I wish I could love this album- it just has too many bad associations for me.
