Founded by Avey Tare (David Portner) alongside Angel Deradoorian and Jeremy Hyman, Avey Tare's Slasher Flicks emerged as a distinctive jazz power trio noted for its live-forward sound and theatrical horror aesthetic. The project blends 1960s garage rock with psychedelic pop, delivering a more guitar-driven, visceral experience compared to Portner's solo work. Enter the Slasher House, the debut album released in 2014 on Domino, showcased a bold artistic direction and included the Pitchfork Best New Track pick for the single Little Fang. If you're seeking a vintage-inspired yet modern live set, this group is known for its dynamic, immersive performances that stand out in the indie and psych-rock landscapes.
