Track of the Moment- Doused by Diiv

Really Big Picture!


There have been a few bands this year to come out of nowhere and grab my attention before the release of an album. First their was Grimes, the wonderful act to arise in February, there is Purity Ring, who after a fantastic SXSW showing and some highly acclaimed singles have been waiting to drop their first album, and there is Diiv. Diiv are the side project of one of the guitarists of Beach Fossils, and ambient dream pop-band. And while Diiv’s first album, entitled Oshin has many of those elements to it, it stands out as being purely guitar driven and having shoe-gaze elements to it. One of the tracks that stands out among Diiv’s first album is the excellent track Doused, which was one of those previously mentioned singles.
