Show Notes

On this day 10 years ago, Deerhunter released *Halcyon Digest*, an album seen at the time as a "modest" step forward but has come to represent the band's high water mark. But what does Deerhunter mean to us today? Has the album's themes of nostalgia and isolation stood the test of time? And is playing bass for Bradford Cox the most dangerous job in America? Dillon and Trevor set out to answer all these questions and more on the second episode of preTENtious.
