DIIV - Deceiver (2019)

Rebirth takes place when everything falls apart. DIIV - Zachary Cole Smith (lead vocals, guitar), Andrew Bailey (guitar), Colin Caulfield (bass), and Ben Newman (drums) - craft the soundtrack to personal resurrection under the heavy weight of metallic catharsis upheld by robust guitars and vocal tension that almost snaps, but never quite. The same could be said of the journey these four musicians underwent to get to their third full-length album, 'Deceiver'. Out of lies, fractured friendships, and broken promises, clarity would be found.
