The Deaf at Memory Lanes 1/20/07

Memory Lanes is my least favorite venue in town sound-wise, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that this recording actually sounds pretty good. It finds the Deaf running through nine songs in under 20 minutes, as is their wont, including a couple new ones not found on their debut record This Bunny Bites. For the uninitiated, the Deaf seem to operate on the principle that if sludgy stoner rock is a good idea, then surely sludgy stoner rock distilled into catchy, sub-3-minute nuggets is also a good idea, if not a better one. For the record, I agree.
