Deerhunter is an American five-piece group originated from Atlanta, Georgia. The band, composed of Bradford Cox, Moses Archuleta, Josh Fauver, Whitney Petty, and Lockett Pundt, have described themselves as "ambient punk," though they incorporate a wide range of genres, including noise rock, art rock, ambient, and post-punk.
The band has had several line-up changes and the death of a member. Lead singer Bradford Cox has cited many musical influences that contribute to Deerhunter's sound, some of which include The Clean, The Fall, The Flying Lizards, Kompakt records, The Birthday Party, The Bad Seeds, and Liars. However, if their influences had to be "narrowed down", Cox would note their "defining influences" as Echo & The Bunnymen, Brian Eno, David Bowie and My Bloody Valentine.
