Not feeling the new little simz on first listen. Ah man, I'm LOVING it. A bit of a fresh direction. But 7 tracks at 14 mins total is more sampler than album. But I like this a lot more than her last album.

DIIV have announced a new album, Frog in Boiling Water, which is their fourth and first in four years, and will be out May 24 via Fantasy. The record was made with producer Chris Coady, and the path leading to its completion was apparently a hard one that, according to the press release, ânearly broke the band.â
The album title is a reference to the old story about the frog in a pot of cold water that is put on the boil, who stays in until itâs too late. âWe understand the metaphor to be one about a slow, sick, and overwhelmingly banal collapse of society under end-stage capitalism, the brutal realities weâve maybe come to accept as normal,â say the band. âThatâs the boiling water and we are the frogs. The album is more or less a collection of snapshots from various angles of our modern condition which we think highlights what this collapse looks like and, more particularly, what it feels like.â
The album includes âSoul Net,â which the band released last year via a weird website, and the new single is âBrown Paper Bag,â a slow, sludgy, but soaring number that recalls the early â90s where shoegaze and grunge rubbed elbows. You can listen to that below.
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
