Deerhunter were recently seen on these shores opening up for (and occasionally playing with) Spoon. The band is now in the U.K., where a brief tour was supplemented by a session for a show on the beleaguered BBC 6 Music hosted by former Fall guitarist Marc Riley.
You can listen to the show here, or head over here to download some not-strictly-legal MP3s, which include a new song titled “Helicopter,” and—in a nod to Riley’s past, which may or may not have made him uncomfortable given his famously antagonistic relationship with Mark E Smith—a cover of the Fall’s “Who Makes the Nazis?” from Hex Induction Hour.

"Who Makes the Nazis" might be my favorite Fall song.
How do you like the cover, Nick?
It's pretty terrible actually. Although I don't think it should be taken too seriously.
