DIIV – “Everyone Out”

Louie Kovatch

Last month, Brooklyn’s DIIV announced their new album Frog In Boiling Water and shared the spectacular lead single “Brown Paper Bag.” They followed that by officially dropping “Soul-net,” which they initially released on a mysterious website in October. Today, the shoegaze savants are back with the gorgeous “Everyone Out.”

In a statement, the band said the song “utilizes a softer and more textural sonic pallet: acoustic instruments, layered tape loops and synthesizers. The song is emotional and intimate, and could be interpreted as either hopeful or cynical. It may or may not be a character study centering around a quick transition from youthful naivety to bitter disillusionment. This loss of hope may be manifest in a desire to leave society completely or to accelerate its collapse. Or maybe both, or neither.”
