Deerhunter and Breeders Perform The Amps' 'Bragging Party' Live at ATP Minehead
In May 2009, Deerhunter was riding high on the wave of their album 'Microcastle,' released just months prior in October 2008. This album not only showcased their signature blend of dreamy melodies and intricate noise, but it also received widespread acclaim, solidifying their place in the indie rock scene. By the time of the ATP performance at Butlins Minehead, they had established a unique sound that resonated with many fans. Interestingly, the band was also known for their engaging and sometimes unpredictable live shows, which added a vibrant layer to their recorded music. This particular performance, alongside The Breeders covering The Amps' "Bragging Party," highlights the festival's spirit of collaboration and the thriving music community at that time, with Deerhunter at the forefront of the indie revival.
