PRAISE FOR FROG IN BOILING WATER:
“There are only great DIIV records, but I think this might be their best one…Every detail is so perfectly calibrated. You just feel that you are in the presence of a band that knows exactly what it’s set out to do…The resulting album is quite breathtaking”
–NPR Music
“The title track of the coming album by the Brooklyn band Diiv is a hazy, droney, baleful assessment of society’s prospects, envisioning only decay and collapse… Distorted, steady-strummed shoegaze guitars and a chord progression that stays unsettled sustain the desolate mood.”
-The New York Times
“their most mature and best album, a sign that this is a band in it for the long haul, one that has already built a considerable artistic legacy but is disinclined to rest on its laurels”
–Stereogum (Album of the Week)
“brooding yet gorgeous shoegaze…a lush meditation on how to keep going as the world ends in slow motion”
–Vulture
“In the fashion of shoegaze’s more maximal strains, an undercarriage of funk and breakbeats helps transmute the angst of Zachary Cole Smith’s lullaby vocals into the ultimate catharsis.”
-Pitchfork
“DIIV have merged their hazy, beautifully layered sonics with lyrics that are sharply political, taking on social and economic injustice, militarism, environmental destruction, complacency, and—at the root of it all—capitalism.”
-Esquire
“Their most meticulously crafted album to date”
-Northern Transmissions
“one of rock’s most impressionistic acts”
–GRAMMY.com
“the most flat-out beautiful music of DIIV’s career.”
–UPROXX
“the most tense, subtle, and cerebral music of their whole career.”
-SPIN
“Frog in Boiling Water is their most cohesive work. It’s a true slow burn of an album, capturing listeners by degrees and echoing the band’s subtle yet dramatic growth since Oshin.”
–Brooklyn Vegan
“they double down on their version of shoegaze and dream-pop—which has always had a bit more darkness in its veins than that of their contemporaries.”
–Paste
“DIIV have always plucked beauty out from the pits of hell… Frog In Boiling Water suggests they’re up to the task”
-The FADER
