Deer Tick‘s three-week Brooklyn Bowl residency begins TONIGHT (12/5). As mentioned, they’ll be performng different albums and EPs in full at the three shows. Unfortunately no War Elephant (which they recently performed at a Newport Folk Fest afterparty), but we will get:

12.05.12 Born on Flag Day + More Fuel for the Fire EP
12.12.12 The Black Dirt Sessions + Holy Shit it’s Christmas EP
12.19.12 Divine Providence + Tim EP

Doors for each show are at 8pm, and Deer Tick guitarist Ian O’Neil opens each show with a solo set. Other openers include Hollis Brown on 12/5, Viking Moses in 12/12, and Alex Bleeker on 12/19. Deer Tick’s other upcoming shows include the Capitol Theater with My Morning Jacket and Maxwell’s. They’re all listed below.

Ian O’Neil, like many of our favorite artists before him, told us what his favorite albums of 2012 were. His list includes his recent tour-mates Turbo Fruits, his old band Titus Andronicus (who headlined Webster Hall this week), and legends Neil Young & Crazy Horse (who played Barclays Center this week). Check it out in full below…
