Saved by Old Times is a Superman and you are our arch, as Trent and Dave are giving their impressions of the Timebends EP! We are going in completely blind to this massive 12-minute song full of improvisation and sprawling instrumentals. We ponder what this could mean for the band's future and later compete to assemble our dream Deerhunter albums in planet Earth's first-ever Deerhunter Draft. Lastly, we reflect on the current composition of the band and what we've grown to love about each member. All this, and a song-by-song discussion of epic proportions.

Saved by Old Times is saying good morning to Japan, as Trent and Dave are finishing out Why Hasn't Everything Already Disappeared! We brave eternal Détournement and don our Tarnung as we venture into a second half that is stacked high with references to finality and closure. But, this is not without levity, as Deerhunter still delivers moments of "Rock Sexy Art Pop" with more straightforward tracks like Futurism and Plains. Lastly, as we bask in the band's final Nocturne (for now!) and reflect on Deerhunter's excellent 2018 Best Kept Secret performance and current-era live show. All this, and a song-by-song discussion of epic proportions. Deerhunter live at Best Kept Secret in 2018: https://youtu.be/X2EuD9C8VbA Original theme song by From Maverick To Kelly.

Saved by Old Times is in the home stretch, as Trent and Dave are listening to Why Hasn't Everything Already Disappeared! We come down from that cloud and answer the age old question, "What Happens to People?" (in Deerhunter's case... they get influenced by David Bowie!). Assuredly, No One's Sleeping through the band's flirtation with long-form instrumental passages, where we see an equal homage to both the art and arena rock of yore. Lastly, we parse out the many sonically-varied Elements that somehow bond together to make one of Deerhunter's most thematically rich albums to date. All this, and a song-by-song discussion of epic proportions. Original theme song by From Maverick To Kelly. Contact: [email protected]

Saved by Old Times is once again born with an ability to talk, as Trent and Dave tackle the back half of Fading Frontier! We immediately contemplate driving our cars over the edge while voicing our frustrations with Leather and Wood - BUT - Deerhunter emerges sleeker and more confident than ever before on Snakeskin. We unpack why this groove is immaculately constructed and how the lyrics reward long-time fans of the band. Lastly, we look up to the stars and pontificate on how successful the band was at focusing their sound into a softer, more pop-forward approach in this era. All this, and a song-by-song discussion of epic proportions.

Saved by Old Times carries on as Trent and Dave are soaking in the relaxed vibes of Fading Frontier! Things are not All The Same as Deerhunter reunites with producer Ben Allen to create their most electronic and polished record to date. This combo Breaker in the band's discography is lush with themes of emotional growth and comfortable acceptance, especially on set-pieces like Living My Life and Take Care. So drop off the grid and join us on this cozy little Duplex Planet! All this, and a song-by-song discussion of epic proportions. Original theme song by From Maverick To Kelly.

Saved by Old Times is on the cusp of a breakthrough as Trent and Dave are finishing Monomania! We are very much NOT Sleepwalking through the excellent second half of this record and outline why we feel it holds the key to unlocking the shattered personal fragments found in songs like Back to the Middle and Nitebike. Finally, we conquer all our fears and confront the titanic noise opus that is Monomania and debate the merits of the intentionally rougher, Punk aesthetic Deerhunter chose for this album. All this, and a song-by-song discussion of epic proportions. Deerhunter Live at Primavera in 2013: https://youtu.be/A3fkvwm41M4. Original theme song by From Maverick To Kelly.

Saved by Old Times goes nocturnal as Trent and Dave are listening along to Monomania! We enter the Neon Junkyard and celebrate this wonderful mess of an album and give context to why this is a divisive record in the Deerhunter canon.

Lastly, we can't resist some minor griping about the album's odd track sequencing and present our own fan edits. All this, and a song-by-song discussion of epic proportions.
