Great review...love this album!!! Makes sense that Zachary played drums and guitar in Beach Fossils from 2010-2012.

I missed that part - but totally makes sense! Also makes sense why early DIIV albums are on Captured Tracks.

Amazing review!

Hey Andy, loving this album. Early favorites are Reflected, Soul-net, Everyone Out and the one that drew me in to this album and band, Brown Paper Bag. But really, the whole album is great, not a bad song. Great review! -Mike

I totally agree! Seriously, it’s probably my favorite album of the year so far…

Hard to beat this for AOTY. Best album I’ve heard in years. Great review.

[@AndyFenstermaker]

Thanks! And I totally agree. Kind of obsessed with it at the moment…

I love DIIV and saw them at Wiltern in Los Angeles. I just wish that song line up, I was disappointed no " healthy moon" "the spark" "sometimes". " for the guilty ". Frog album doesn't have a fast song. It is a dark album, denser.

Very true. They are all dreamy and ethereal. Still love the album though. Thanks for commenting!

Love this LP I was trying so hard to not listen to any of the songs before I could hear then whole thing in its entirety.

Are you still following your buy one get rid of one rule?

[@AndyFenstermaker]

Trying to! I have a “purge bin” that I need to finish dropping from Discogs and take to the record store…
