This song is bad-ass in many ways, but I'm not quite sure 'evolution', a word implying positive change, is the right word to use. This album is simply quite different from their previous albums, donning a noticeably grimmer and heavier sound that i must say i have trouble getting into, except for this track and 'skin game'. There's this 'sameness ' in song structure and melodic progression across a lot of the tracks from this album, in contrast with 'is the is are', a record that I find exciting, more accessible and have purchased multiple copies for myself and my friends. I'd say that the overall sound of an album changes with the phase that the artiste is currently undergoing and the themes they wish to portray with the album.
@@lequinntessential interesting view man!! but yeah im just saying that this plays slightly different from their previous records and thats hey, its a pretty good record. (wasn't out when i wrote orginal comment) But yeah maybe you're right critiquing my use of the word "evolve". I think a more appropriate word would have been "progressing" maybe?
@@tuckend pardon me - I'm a huge sucker for semantics 😂 I'm sure some people would find the charm of a kitten more endearing than that of a fully grown cat, an entity that has 'progressed', or vice versa. I like the older music of Feist or Caribou better, yet I prefer Tame Impala's newer releases than their older albums. The work put out by people will always change, but one's tastes may not.
LYRICS: Armageddon is a product And one we choose to buy Dwell on that for a moment With Paradise on fire I guess it's all the way Blankenship Children lead the cry You sold them all away Blankenship With thirty years of lies Who sold us the dominion Over swine that smell their knife The vicious creature thin and dying On a scrap of melting ice The Earth is ownerless Blankenship Children lead the cry You sold them all away Blankenship With thirty years of lies I should have treated you better Blankenship The lives you weaponize You sold them all away Blankenship With silver-plated eyes Think of your sons and daughters Laid in ashen water Sirens louder and louder Destroy those who destroy the Earth
In any other band a chorus like that would EXPLODE but they don't raise the volume too much. Whether it's due to the singer having soft vocals or just their taste, it's definitely a unique way to release the tension of their verse
I've always wanted to say that Oshin felt like a spiritual experience for me. Driving anywhere, at a high volume, it felt ethereal, surreal, effulgent, dreamlike yet grounding, full of wonder and hope.
As a structure, this song has a stronger, more definite attitude. It adds an atmosphere similar to that of certain songs from the first albums (Earthboy, Yr Not Far), but still the aesthetics of the two songs from the upcoming one remains. In short: love it
Since Oshin, your music accompanied me through so many painful and happy memories. So excited for new album, i know it will help too. Great song. Best band! Love from İstanbul.
Really dig this band and this song in particular. Those dissonant notes on bridge from 1:00 - 1:22 (and again at the end) are awesome - something tells me they've been listening to old Sonic Youth records.
So happy you guys are putting out new stuff. I just hit a year sober and have struggled with heroin for 10 years and Oshin and Is She Is Are got me thru so many really really tough times. Love you guys and your music so much
I never noticed until I saw them live last weekend (in Berlin) that Blankenship sometimes sounds SO RADIOHEAD from the OK Computer era, especially the guitar riff solo and the drum roll that preceeds. Even the way it ends it's so Radiohead as well lol. Not that there's anything wrong with that! Anyway love DIIV even more after the concert, they gave a fantastic show. Hope they come back soon
This is fucking Incredible, you are all fucking Incredible. please come to Texas after this whole C thing finally fucks off proper. As that would be.. Incredible.
I’ll be a fan of DIIV for the rest of my life. Oshin and Is the Is Are are classics. Is the is Are is my favorite of the two. What I’ve heard so far isn’t on the level of the previous two albums (yet), but I will be purchasing it nonetheless to really get a gauge. Fuck streaming. My favorite bands get my real money and support. PLEASE COME TO SALT LAKE CITY.

SABORRRRR
they have evolved appropriately, that’s rare for bands nowadays

I just want to note how strangely refreshing it was to read a pleasant/respectful disagreement in a TH-cam comments section, good job fellas
Matt Clark ^ i concur
You gotta be honest this is an underrated masterpiece
Yup
Amazing song I used to listen to it when I used to live next to the world one trade center.
Very underrated band tbh
It sure is just like Doused
Its fantastic! Just randomly heard on a local university station. Best music I’ve heard in a long while.
Diiv is the type of band that makes u want to start a band. Good shit
LYRICS:
Armageddon is a product
And one we choose to buy
Dwell on that for a moment
With Paradise on fire
I guess it's all the way
Blankenship
Children lead the cry
You sold them all away
Blankenship
With thirty years of lies
Who sold us the dominion
Over swine that smell their knife
The vicious creature thin and dying
On a scrap of melting ice
The Earth is ownerless
Blankenship
Children lead the cry
You sold them all away
Blankenship
With thirty years of lies
I should have treated you better
Blankenship
The lives you weaponize
You sold them all away
Blankenship
With silver-plated eyes
Think of your sons and daughters
Laid in ashen water
Sirens louder and louder
Destroy those who destroy the Earth

It's 100% a matter of taste, nowadays you can mix everyone to be loud :)
DIIV has always preferred an interesting dynamic range for their music. It works really well for them.
The breakdown gives me chills every time. Diiv are getting better and better.
Same. Reminds me of boys against girls. They do that "heavy but danceable" riff style so well.
That Bass Tone ! Come on ! 👏👏👌🤘
This songs literally perfect
Less dreamy, more post-punk vibe. Really love it!!
more kraut than post punk (?
I would hope the song is not dreamy considering the lyrical content lol
Yeah not post punk
Fantastic album…. And they’re getting better and better
@@cannatacrisjust like Shoegaze predecessor Ride….their starting point has always been basically that plus The Beatles
He looks so healthy omg I’m so proud I love the new look and sound
That roaring guitar run after the bridge is on point. Welcome back DIIV!
I've always wanted to say that Oshin felt like a spiritual experience for me. Driving anywhere, at a high volume, it felt ethereal, surreal, effulgent, dreamlike yet grounding, full of wonder and hope.
This song really has the DIIV DNA
As a structure, this song has a stronger, more definite attitude. It adds an atmosphere similar to that of certain songs from the first albums (Earthboy, Yr Not Far), but still the aesthetics of the two songs from the upcoming one remains. In short: love it
Thx Gustavo, that’s fucking tite.
@@colincaulfield1527 Thanks to you for the dope music. Love yall ✌️
Since Oshin, your music accompanied me through so many painful and happy memories. So excited for new album, i know it will help too. Great song. Best band! Love from İstanbul.
Loving the new Diiv project so far.
I'm so hyped for this album!!!!
I love the 90's Vibe in this song. But in somehow, is sounds really modern. Thats great.
This is probably the only moment in my life that I wish could last an eternity.
Bishkek,Kyrgyzstan,i dont think there are people in my country except me,who listen to this masterpiece
Really dig this band and this song in particular. Those dissonant notes on bridge from 1:00 - 1:22 (and again at the end) are awesome - something tells me they've been listening to old Sonic Youth records.
So happy you guys are putting out new stuff. I just hit a year sober and have struggled with heroin for 10 years and Oshin and Is She Is Are got me thru so many really really tough times. Love you guys and your music so much
Awesome I love bedroom
Yagari ❤
3:20 Love this part
Adding some Sonic Youth vibe is a good fit for your music. We'll see with the full album...
The album is in line with this sound, everything sounds dirtier and more raw than before. I had a listen.
My thoughts exactly. Sonic Youth from the Rather Ripped era. Awesome 👏🏻
静かに疾走してゆく感が
とてもカッコ良いのです
Deceiver、買いました。
最高。
Temon!
Wow amazing song

the BEST
DIIV live in Portugal in 2020: Porto on the 19th March at Hard Club and Lisbon on the 20th March at Lisboa ao Vivo
Great information. Thank you. I will be there!
Sorry that it did not happen.
The best song grunge/Shoegaze
Súper rifadas la nuevas canciones. ❤️❤️
I love listening Diiv while I'm running in afternoon! Perfect
From watery and now, dry!!! Love it!
the Age Of t-shirt is something
Deep Deers glad they’re repping. In terms of sensitivity to sound maybe they’ve taken hints
Perhaps, opn and diiv collab? I'm more of Tim Hecker fan tho
That was a huge "fuck yeah" for me. Big 0pn fan, big DIIV fan--this is good news all around
Just discovered this and it's soooo good.
probably the healthiest Cole has looked since he was a kid playing with Beach Fossils.
happy for the guy! their sound has evolved.
he looks straight edge now lol
he's a #humanoshin
a water #earthboy
don't you #followdiiv ?
He looks more like an addict now that he is clean
@@yanthetrooper67 nah
this is the best new guitar music I've heard since the polvo reunion. A+. I'm going to buy this album.
listen to black midi, more great guitar music from this year
@@bitbat9 that's what up!
I love the DIIV. I love the diiv bars I've seen them in.
"Destroy those who destroy the Earth" -- Yes. Let's do this thing!
The way he says “Blank. En. Ship.” cracks me up for some reason 😆
This somehow reminds me so much of Sonic Youth. The guitar riffs
The best new DIIV song from far. I think this album will by my favorite with Oshin. Big respect for the mix it's sounds awesome!
I never noticed until I saw them live last weekend (in Berlin) that Blankenship sometimes sounds SO RADIOHEAD from the OK Computer era, especially the guitar riff solo and the drum roll that preceeds. Even the way it ends it's so Radiohead as well lol. Not that there's anything wrong with that! Anyway love DIIV even more after the concert, they gave a fantastic show. Hope they come back soon
Heard that masterpiece yesterday at Depeche Mode opening in Montreal. I love it!!
Damn. What a tune.
já to hype, mano que banda maravilhosa, só melhora com o tempo
So good
Enjoy both sides of DIIV, even being shoegaze or not, they still good af
This is fucking Incredible, you are all fucking Incredible. please come to Texas after this whole C thing finally fucks off proper. As that would be.. Incredible.
Super fresh new sound , can’t wait to hear the rest of the new album !!!!
I’ll be a fan of DIIV for the rest of my life. Oshin and Is the Is Are are classics. Is the is Are is my favorite of the two.
What I’ve heard so far isn’t on the level of the previous two albums (yet), but I will be purchasing it nonetheless to really get a gauge. Fuck streaming. My favorite bands get my real money and support. PLEASE COME TO SALT LAKE CITY.
I used to live in Utah; it's cool to hear people from there loving Diiv
J’adore
Can't wait for the new album, love u guys
sheer menacing aura brilliance
every time I hear it it's like it's the first time.

Such a great track...can't wait for the album. They go from strength to strength
Suena en Radio Doble nueve, Lima,Perú 😀😁💗
Love this band.
I'd never heard of this group before. Really good-I liked it. Like Silverspun Pickups and Sonic Youth in one.
Love ittttttt 🌑🌑🌑
Wow, just discovered this band. Opened for Depeche Mode. You might figure I'm in my fifties, what an awesome band. Reminds me of Sonic Youth.
Soothing and releasing my pain inside
I love this song.
Couldn't help but think of Don Blankenship with this song.
YES
Excellent
A breath of fresh air. Keep on keeping it real!
Great song
Album in my collection, thanks for vid.
amazing Song and amazing Album. Thank you DIIV + greetings from Germany
yessss
This is so much more clear-headed than the soupiness of Is the Is Are. I love that rekkid but damn, this cuts right through all the haze. Love it.
Great music
Indianapolis Colts kicker Rodrigo Blankenship bought me here. Such a fitting tribute song for him!
This is the first song that I heard from DIIV, now is my favorite band 💚
wooo ya
The reverb is on the vocals….great song
thank you for actually taking time to make good music
This album is just fantastic
Jesus hallelujah DIIV!
Incredible
