166. CHRIS COHEN ON HIS DEERHOOF YEARS, OVERGROWN PATH, & AS IF APART (PART 1) (Discograffiti, the music obsessives’ podcast)

43 minutes

First in Deerhoof and then on his own over four consistently brilliant solo LPs (including the brand-new Hardly Art release Paint A Room), Chris Cohen’s been gifting us with projects over the last 25 years that’ve run the gamut stylistically. Massive success inevitably beckons, and that’s the objective truth.

Here’s just a few of the things Chris and I discuss in this podcast:

How he wound up joining Deerhoof and became a crucial architect of their sound during the Apple O’/Milk Man era;

A rundown of the tumultuous interpersonal drama that went down during his time in the band;

And in-depth discussions of Chris’s first two solo albums, Overgrown Path and As If Apart!

I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income. If you love the episode, please Venmo me a tip @David-Gebroe, or see below for other ways to support the show! And yes, even a dollar will be massively helpful. Thank you.
