"War Elephant"
The group's debut studio album War Elephant was released on September 4, 2007 on Feow! Records. While Deer Tick continued to tour, the label and the band had disputes over royalty payments. Soon after, Partisan Records signed Deer Tick and re-released War Elephant on November 11, 2008.
In May 2009, due in large part to his love of the song "Dirty Dishes" (from "War Elephant"), NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams featured Deer Tick as the first band profiled on his BriTunes web-based music interview program.
