DIIV – Deceiver [LP]

Description

Rebirth takes place when everything falls apart. DIIVZachary Cole Smith [lead vocals, guitar], Andrew Bailey [guitar], Colin Caulfield [bass], and Ben Newman [drums]craft the soundtrack to personal resurrection under the heavy weight of metallic catharsis upheld by robust guitars and vocal tension that almost snaps, but never quite

The same could be said of the journey these four musicians underwent to get to their third full-length album,Deceiver. Out of lies, fractured friendships, and broken promises, clarity would be found.

Ive known everyone in the band for ten years plus separately and together as DIIV for at least the past five years, says Cole. On Deceiver, Im talking about working for the relationships in my life, repairing them, and accepting responsibility for the places Ive failed them. I had to re-approach the band. It wasnt restarting from a clean slate, but it was a new beginning. It took timeas it did with everybody else in my lifebut we all grew together and learned how to communicate and collaborate.

A whirlwind brought DIIV there.
