In 2005, Deerhoof was experiencing significant creative momentum, having just released their album "The Runners Four" earlier that same year. This record was notable for its experimental approach and sonic diversity, reflective of the band's unique blend of noise pop and avant-garde rock. The live performance of "Siriustar" at Northsix in Brooklyn on September 28, 2005, showcased their energetic stage presence and innovative sound during this prolific period. Interestingly, "The Runners Four" received widespread critical acclaim and helped to further elevate Deerhoof's status in indie music circles, allowing them to tour extensively. This performance is a testament to their ability to capture and provoke, which has remained a hallmark of their live shows.
