About

Deerhunter, Eleven years of experimental indie rock from Atlanta's Deerhunter.

Five vinyl LPs spanning psychedelic and alternative rock — original pressings mostly on 4AD with steady collector interest.

Formed in 2001 in Atlanta, Deerhunter consist of Bradford Cox (vocals, guitar), Moses Archuleta (drums, keyboards), Colin Mee, Lockett Pundt (guitars), and previously Josh Fauver (bass). Their debut, marked by punk and garage rock elements, evolved toward expansive pop-inflected shoegaze and art rock by their mid-career releases. Notable for contrasting ambient and pop sides, their albums explore introspective and experimental sonic territories across their catalog.

Deerhunter's vinyl editions, predominantly released on the UK and US 4AD label, attract vinyl collectors and audiophiles with multiple vinyl versions. Recent pressings offer original formats with catalog numbers such as 4AD0089LP for their 2019 album.
