Koalamagic is a live album released in 2001 by
Deerhoof on the Australian label
Dual Plover. The album includes five tracks, some of which are several songs put together, recorded over the course of the band's early, noise-oriented years, from 1996 to 2000. The material is culled from Deerhoof's
first full-length,
Holdypaws,
Halfbird, and
Reveille. The tracks are presented in the reverse-chronological order featuring various lineups, starting with the trio that recorded
Reveille. The following tracks include performances by Rob Fisk, a founding member, and other short-lived members like Kelly Goode, Jess Goddard, and Chris Cooper. Ned Raggett of AllMusic described the album as "a sort-of band history as alternate arrangements and lineups came and went".[1]
