Darwin Deez started as a New York indie pop project around 2009, led by Darwin Smith. Their self-titled EP that year included 'Radar Detector,' a song that got some attention for its catchy, off-kilter pop feel.
They put out three albums between 2010 and 2015: 'Darwin Deez,' 'IRS,' and 'Double Down.' Other songs like '(800) HUMAN' and 'Bad Day' have the same wiry guitar lines and conversational lyrics that became familiar to their listeners.
The band's lineup shifted over time, with Smith as the constant. Their live shows were known for being energetic and a bit odd, which fit the music. They haven't been especially active lately, but those early songs still pop up here and there.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
