In April 2016, Deerhoof announced The Magic, its first studio album since their 2014 La Isla Bonita.
Joseph Baughman created the music video for the album's "The Devil and his Anarchic Surrealist Retinue". Baughman described his style as a slow-motion improvisation. The clay animated video features chessboard pieces and multicolored minotaurs. Gary McQuiggin created the video for "Dispossessor", featuring Professor Raphael Appleblossom "demonstrating" the Banach-Tarski Paradox.
