More Deep Cuts is the second studio album by American indie rock band Thee More Shallows. It was originally released on Monotreme Records in 2004. It was re-released on Turn Records in 2005. Later printings were released with an alternative cover.

Critical reception

Mark Keresman of East Bay Express gave the album a favorable review, saying: "Whereas most bands can be described and/or dismissed with a few words, Thee More Shallows defy such classification by truly integrating diverse influences into their approach.[2] He added: "Instead of dynamic, grab-you hooks, TMS' melodies faintly insinuate themselves into your psyche via cyclic structures, shimmering orchestrations, and judicious feedback/noise."[2] Chris Whibbs of Exclaim! said: "The title really does get to the heart of the album as these subtle, slow and beautiful stories leave much more than a scratch upon your mind."[3]
