Back with their first new album of the decade, those shoegaze darlings with a tumultuous backstory DIIV announce Frog In Boiling Water. Recorded with producer Chris Coady, known for his work with the likes of Yeah Yeah Yeahs and TV On The Radio, the band’s fourth full album boasts ten new tunes to dazzle and delight, casting something of a hopeful (shoe)gaze over the crumbling state of modern society. New single Brown Paper Bag has all the breathy, fuzzy, drowsy trappings of classic DIIV, suggesting we’re in for a treat with this one. - Flying Out
Produced by Chris Coady and written by DIIV, Frog in Boiling Water, the band’s fourth full-length LP is a collection of snapshots that explores the brutal realities of end-stage capitalism and overwhelming technological advance. Across 10 dark and dazzling tracks, DIIV documents the collapse from various angles with unusual sensitivity and depth of purpose while expanding their grand, hypnotic shoegaze, to create a transportive, sensual work of hope, beauty and renewal.
