Deerhunter turn it up faggot full album


Turn It Up Faggot is the debut album from indie rock group Deerhunter. The album's title refers to a taunt that was shouted at the band during early live shows although the album is also referred to as self-titled. The album's notes dedicate the album to Justin Bosworth, the band's original bassist, who died in 2004.

Lead singer Bradford Cox produced the cover photography, typography and montage for the album. For the album artwork, Cox took a picture of Jared Swilley from the Black Lips, recognizable to some because of the tattoo on his arm. The music video for "Oceans" is available as a CD-ROM extra.

Only 300 copies of the LP were pressed. The band have disowned the record and it has never been reissued or available to stream anywhere besides the Stickfigure Records website.
