DIIV

'Is the Is Are' (album stream)

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Jan 29, 2016

Reverb-and-distortion-glazed Brooklyn indie rock outfit DIIV have been dishing out a series of single previews ahead of the release of their sophomore full-length, Is the Is Are, but with a week to go before the album officially sees release, the band have now offered up a stream of the whole LP.

As previously reported, the band had previously shared the title track"Under the Sun," "Bent (Roi's Song)," "Mire (Grant's Song)" and more.

The album stream now offers up the sound of glimmering, C86-style janglers like "Out of Mind," the heart-thumping snare punches and brassy keyboard patches on post-punk stomp-out "Valentine," and an ultra-brief earworm by the name of "(Fuck)."

You'll find all of Is the Is Are below, courtesy of The Guardian, while the album goes on sale February 5 via Captured Tracks.
