November's Choice of music : Deerhunter

Deerhunter is an American five-piece group originated from Atlanta, Georgia. The band, comprised of Bradford Cox, Moses Archuleta, Josh Fauver, Whitney Petty, and Lockett Pundt, have described themselves as "ambient punk," though they incorporate a wide range of genres, including noise rock, art rock, ambient, and post-punk. 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 Yeah Yeah Yeahs in NME as bordering on “a religious experience.”
