nowhere to go,
don’t take me home
(for the first time, in the below live version, i can clearly decipher the words.)
“sunday night” (originally posted as “sunday night in atlanta”) was posted charmingly to the deerhunter / atlas sound/ lotus plaza blog by lockett pundt back in ‘7. as he explains in the post, he had just purchased a new pitch-shifting pedal and went a little wild with it (i wonder how much of the track was improvised with the new pedal).
i remember being enamored of the track right off the bat, and we got to hear a polished version on his debut lp the floodlight collective. in a recent, rare (though maybe not for long, considering deerhunter’s newly-fastened hiatus) live set, deerhunter’s panda bear laid down a super drawn-out, guitar solo-laden rendition of the track at atlanta’s eyedrum. track kicks in around 11:20-11:25.
