With ‘Honeycomb,’ Deafheaven Matches Its Expansive Promise
Full feature by Lars Gotrich via NPR
The secret of the pearl’s beauty is secretion: Layers and layers of calcium carbonate and conchiolin form over a microscopic intruder in a process intended principally to protect the mollusk’s internal domain, but also produces a gift for the patient pearl fisher. Deafheaven has spent eight years layering its exquisite and extreme sound, its eureka moment of gauzy black metal most realized on Sunbather and adventuring beyond with 2015’s New Bermuda. It’s the latter that reached more ears, but sometimes felt unformed in its sonic array — still something to behold, but not quite ready to be broken open.

Deafheaven “Honeycomb” // Best New Track on Pitchfork
Feature by Jayson Greene via Pitchfork
“Honeycomb,” Deafheaven’s first new song since 2015, offers the band’s fans no surprises. From its opening seconds, it sounds as if the shoegaze/black metal outfit has been screaming uninterrupted behind some thick, soundproof curtain ever since we left them. This may be for the best; if you’ve worked up a sound this oceanic, you might as well luxuriate in it for a good long while. And so on “Honeycomb,” they do just that.

Deafheaven on Rolling Stone’s 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time
Deafheaven guitarist Kerry McCoy and singer George Clarke grew up together in Modesto, California – they met in high school when McCoy spotted Clarke wearing a Slayer T-shirt, while Clarke noticed McCoy was wearing a Dead Kennedys patch. Naturally, they had to start a band. That blend of influences has made Deafheaven one of the most polarizing and controversial metal bands of recent years. As McCoy put it, they claim “this triangle of extreme music, experimental music and very sad indie rock. That’s what we were into.” The San Francisco band blew up with their second album Sunbather, the 2013 breakthrough that defined their expansive style of black metal. In fiercely emotional tracks like “Dream House” and “The Pecan Tree,” they weave in elements of post-punk indie noise bands like Mogwai, along with shoegaze elders like My Bloody Valentine or Slowdive. “Sunbather musically and lyrically sums up what we were thinking; it’s very hopeful and bright and fast and energetic,” McCoy said. “Lyrically, it’s very yearning.” And it sounds like nothing else, though Deafheaven make no apologies for that. As McCoy told Rolling Stone, “That mixture of influences has kind of always been our thing, much to some people’s annoyance." R.S.Via Rolling Stone
Choice Set of Day one: Deafheaven // Invisible Oranges
Deafheaven. The complaints I’ve heard over the years about Deafheaven run the gamut from too emo, too contrived, not true enough, etc. They are a polarizing band, but I’m entirely convinced this comes from attempts to peg them as something they aren’t. The shoegaze-y, effect-laden weight of Deafheaven’s sound can hardly be categorized as black metal alone. Tonight, vocalist George Clarke’s schizophrenic movements were the focal point, fluctuating more extremely than ever between manic orchestra conductor and serpent-like seductor. Stinging guitars and merciless drumming cut through the auditorium like a knife.
A palpable post-Deafheaven buzz continued into the wee hours. The night swirled into a maze reunions with old friends, clinking glasses and excitement for the three days to come.
