CD DetailsSynopsis
Product Description Deer Tick's highly anticipated second full-length, and follow-up to the band's acclaimed debut War Elephant (reissued in 2008 by Partisan Records)! This release follows two years of extensive touring in sold-out clubs across around the world. Unlike War Elephant, the album features the three new members of Deer Tick that principal songwriter John J. McCauley III recruited to form the current incarnation, and reflects a natural evolution from a singular vision of one songwriter to something greater. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsGreat Second Release MusicFan | 07/07/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "I was introduced to Deer Tick through a friend from Providence (the bands hometown)a little over a year ago when they were doing even smaller venues than now, mainly around Boston. They've since been getting great exposure, and deservedly so. Born on Flag Day is a great listen. Deer Tick doesn't come at you with any revolutionary songs, just great, great music with outstanding, insightful, and creative lyrics. I don't think they are trying to be anything they aren't. They're just writing great songs. This CD, much like the first, is quite strong overall with a number of amazing, stand-out tracks. For me, those were Easy, Houston-TX, and Smith Hill. I literally can't stop listening to them. There are a number of other 'better than good' songs on here as well, like Song About A Man, Friday the 13th, Little White Lies, The Ghost. We even get a hidden song after Stung (keep listening!). Considering all the songs I just named, that's most of the CD. That's very rare nowadays since most albums have 2 'release' songs and the rest is filler. You won't find that here, nor on their first album, War Elephant. In what seems to be an era of cookie cutter, radio crap, Deer Tick brings a refreshing sound and some plain old wicked-good tunes. John McCauley has a very unique voice that totally works for his music. Give em a try, you won't regret it. Great album." Great Follow Up Michael Twardy | Pawling, NY | 06/30/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "Deer Tick has scored on their 2nd CD. War Elephant was the first and recorded when Providences' own John Joseph McCauley III was 21. On the new CD, "Born on Flag Day", Deertick has matured fully. Some people might not be able to get used to the unique voice, however, everybody will love the words and music. Very catchy." One of the top new artists of the year James R. Roch | Coventry, RI USA | 08/08/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "I just caught this americana/folk/alt/country band at the 50th Newport (RI) Folk Festival last week (where they made a few more thousand new fans of all ages). John McCauley & company were the hit of the festival and have shown why they have constant sellouts on their new album. John is an accomplished songwriter & performer, well beyond his years (like Justin Townes Earle) and has knocked out several catchy tunes (my faves are Ghost, Easy, Little White Lies). I guarantee you'll be tapping your foot through all the songs and will be replaying this CD over & over (I'm at around 20 times since I bought it last week). Please catch these guys if they come your way, it will be well worth it."
