Cryptograms is the second full-length offering from Deerhunter, and their first for Kranky. Deerhunter began in 2001 with the ambition of fusing the lulling hypnotic states induced by ambient and minimalist music with the klang and propulsion of garage rock. The band has weathered chaotic line-up changes, the death of a member, and much discouragement. Their live performances almost always leave audiences polarized, and have been referred to by Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeah's in NME as bordering on "a religious experience." The recording of Cryptograms resulted in the first half of the record which wasrecorded in one day and completely filled the reel of tape they brought with them. Cryptograms' first side begins with an introduction leading to the title track, and ends with the tape literally spinning off the end of the reel in the middle of a drone layered with bells and accordion ("Red Ink"). The second half of the record, also recorded in one day, in November of 2005, represents the band in an entirely different state, focusing on a more psyche-pop angle. ".a massive, psych-heavy, artdamaged five-piece, and one of the most inspired new bands we've heard in quite a while. Deerhunter's forthcoming Kranky debut -- not to mention their absolutely fucking insane live shows-- is likely to make them one of the most talked-about bands of 2007." Pitchfork 23 / 10 / 06
