+ DEER CHICAGO
What a year 2011 has been for Deer Chicago; increasingly engaging live performances and this self-released single have ensured their rise from likeable local noise trio to Oxford’s most promising rock outfit. There is a good reason that ‘Lantern Collapse’ is the highest selling local release in Truck Store, it’s brilliant. If their output continues in this vein, they could be the Oxford breakthrough of 2012 and it couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch.
