On November 3, 2019, Deerhunter took the stage at the Roundhouse in London to perform 'He Would Have Laughed,' a track from their album 'Why Hasn’t Everything Already Disappeared?,' released earlier that same year. This live performance came during a pivotal moment for the band, showcasing their evolution into a more atmospheric and introspective sound, blending dreamy melodies with poignant lyrics. The album marked a departure from their earlier garage rock roots, reflecting a maturity in both songwriting and production. The choice of the title track for this performance speaks volumes—it captures the band's continued exploration of themes like impermanence and loss, resonating with fans at a time filled with uncertainty. Being part of such a distinctive venue like the Roundhouse, known for its rich musical history, makes this performance even more poignant.
