You watched my lips make
the promise i betrayed
the years i lived in vain
chasing the pain with pain
Stand down
There’s oil in my name
my tongue flickers like a wilting flame
Lay it all out
the path of wreckage that i cut
all in want of what?
Who were you to believe?
Your lying eyes or me?
‘I won’t let them tie to you
The shit i put you through’
Stand down
There’s oil in my name
my tongue flickers like a wilting flame
Lay it out
the path of wreckage that i cut
all in want of what?
this song is way more important than it seems
Heavy, slow and ethereal. Just what we needed. Hope the new album goes that direction.

Praise this comment
You win
Here, take my money
Nice
easily one of the smoothest comments i've read in a while. thank you for this.
Sometimes when the world seems dark you need a good song to turn the lights on
Very beautifully put! 😍
Zrinka Matezovic thanks😃
The whole album
It's great to be 40+ years old, and still be able to find bands that become instant myths. DIIV is one of those. New album sound AWESOME!
Agreed, right there with you brother! This also has a great Starflyer 59 vibe to it.
Luca Capezio just gotta know where to look!
Agreed! DIIV is a fantastic band. If you haven't already, you should check out the band Slowdive. They have a poppier sound, but with a similar style. :)
@@raoulspov I've seen Slowdive and MBV live plenty of times already. Still waiting for DIIV to come in Italy!
The same here... my friend introduced them to me... and I love them!
this band just takes me to another place man. feels good being able to appreciate his music while we're both sober
I listened to Is are is the first time on LSD and omg. I went to a different world. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As a recovering heroin/fentanyl/opioid (they’re all interchangeable in the year of our Lord 2022) that’s been in and out of active use for 13 years (I’m 31 so nearly half my life), I’ve noticed that there’s very little music out there that I can relate to when it comes to my experiences with addiction. I’m an obsessive devourer of music and I’m constantly searching out new stuff to listen to and, although I relate to a lot of albums/bands/artists that I can deeply relate to on other feelings and topics, not many at all make me feel any less alone in my struggles with dope. DIIV however is a different story. Cole has been there. He knows what it’s like and he writes about it in a very candid and personal way that I relate to so well that it hurts sometimes. And he’s reached a zenith with that on this album, Deceiver. He doesn’t romanticize or glorify heroin addiction the way that a lot of American and English media tends to. He’s just very upfront and truthful about it, even when these truths are ugly, which they usually are. He kinda patronized the process of getting clean on Is The Is Are a little bit (apparently he was using at the time, even though the album is supposed to mainly be about recovery), but on Deceiver he gets real. Very real. Ive had short periods of sobriety and periods of using since the album came out 3 years ago, especially a very intense period of use during the pandemic where I used way more than ever and hit my lowest, hardest, scariest rock bottom. But through the trials and tribulations and the feelings of fear and loneliness, every step of the way I’ve been able to listen to this album and be reminded that I’m not alone and that other people have gone through the same exact ordeal and have come out the other side and that I can too. Thank you Cole and the rest of DIIV for not just being s great modern shoegaze band and being one of my favorites from America in general, but also for giving me hope and helping me to feel less afraid and less alone 🖤🖤🖤
you got this man you’re amazing
hope you're still doing well
I’m 31 and have been in and out of opioid/heroin/fentanyl addiction for 13 years too. There was always a connection I felt to this song and listened to it while I was using. I had no idea that any members of the band dealt with addiction, but this is the only song of theirs that I’ve listened to. Are there any of their other songs you would recommend from one addict to another?
My Bloody Valent'Diiv
Yeah and add some Smashing Pumpkins and Sonic Youth to that too. Brilliant band. So underrated.
Shit's so dark. Exactly how I feel like these days.
yeah this song hits especially hard currently for me.
The longwinded "stand down"s at 3:04 as well as the riff are just..
Man, tough to describe
Soundtrack of the roaring 20's.
Has a nostalgic 90's feel to it, sick!
Totally, i felt some deftones in it, feels very 90s.
Very grungy and shoegaze-y, I like it! 😊
Raffy Rillo well that’s diiv
shoegrunge!
@@JcastroCFH Nice suggestion, what do you think of them?
yeah, kind of a mix between The Smashing Pumpkins and Slowdive
@@stephenbarber6533 shoegrunge
i love that

I thought he said night tine flickers like a wilting flame I thought this song was about sky lol
So, time passes and from the previous albums 80s post-punk/new-wave (perhaps some shoegaze) we go to full-blown 90s shoegaze and grunge for this one. Its like all these modern indie bands re-construct the history of alt-rock. No complaints though, i guess no-one ever topped and surpassed these musical movements so the only way forward is through the past. I love it.
Very well said
3:06 when it all comes together for me. Magnificent ending.
Big facts!!!
Yesssss! Wish it went on longer!!
My favourite moment of the whole album!
Best outtro I've heard in years. Maybe ever
I keep seeing in the comments that people expect the old diiv sound. If you think that way you will just be disappointed. Just enjoy it and and appreciate the new music they have now as they have clearly matured in their sound. I’m loving what I’ve heard so far from this new album. Diiv never disappoints.
Well put sir!
those bends at the end is genius
This is such a nice direction sound wise, sonic youth vibes and very shoegazey (that riff is straight out of Loveless)
This album got me hyped.
lmao this riff is nothing like loveless, it's more akin to elliott smith when he was in heatmiser.....
@@IFeelSoTongueTied if you can't hear loveless then you must be legally deaf
@@rat9199 this ain't loveless dude. A few stringbends but nothing like mbv. Its like an atmospheric grunge track. Less verb, more dry. Mbv is so fuzzed out it's hard to hear what's going on, this is deff fuzzy, but it's very clear sounding.
@@kylewall8521 I never said the overall sound was like loveless. The riff with the whammy bar is just like a loveless riff structure wise
@@rat9199 listen man i get the gist of what yr saying, but you also probably think slowdive and mbv sound similar.... mbv is NOTHING like this, this is an emo song with some reverb, mbv is a sonic masterpiece
Love this new album.48 years old ,and im blessed there are still solid bands making the greatest sounds.
I am here from the Jonathan Davis and Brealtv interview... this song was playing in the background and I finally found it after 2 weeks of research.... LOVE IT!
DIIV nunca desaponta
Mais um fã br aqui ;)
Reminds me a lot of 90s grunge rock. I really like it.
its actually shoegaze
Love love love. Yes, heavily 90s influenced. But enough interesting diversions and twists & turns to make it something singular and exciting.
2:51 always puts me in a trance
same, friend
the boys are back. unreal.
Sounds amazing! Jesus and the Mary Chain + Slowdive + Nirvana!
Slowdive, sonics youth, nirvana.
+ Type o Negative
Don’t forget Alex g
You guys are among best artists in the world right now.
Check out Drab Mayesty if you havn't Yet. They're breacking the scene too
Que chingones han sido desde el principio. Grande DIIV
Saw them live in Dallas. It was an amazing show. Whenever I start thinking there's not as many good bands around anymore I find gems like DIIV
Hi man. Considering their past live shows, I'm reaally interested; were vocals out of tune or it sounded all right? They are flawless studio band, but live is not that good..
Thanks! I'm thinking to go see them in Vienna and the answer will help me a lot!
favorite song as of right now, this song needs more recognition im suprised its not mainstream
sounds a lot like “ smashing pumpkins aeroplane flys high” i like this song
damn those bends come straight out of the moon and antarctica, hell yeah
Oleg Ustimenko dude I was thinking the exact same thing. There’s Definitely some modest mouse in there towards the end.
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING! Life like weeds 100%
Yup I was thinking the same as well! Very similar modest mouse guitar too in Bent (Roi's song)
this is like an expanded version of the closer on their last album Waste of Breath. at first i didn't care much for the two new songs but they sure have grown on me
Blue Oyster Cult harmonies.
i like this dreamy/distorted style
It's called shoegaze
@@homeroprodan hahah!!!
@@homeroprodan let the man enjoy!!! 😛😂😊
Definite flavour of 'Iron Man' by Black Sabbath struck me on first listen
This band makes my soul wanna travel to a perfect world
dam it's a trip that this is actually diiv. So different but so fucking good ! shoegaze goodness
True Widow's doom shoegaze vibes
Honestly, I wouldn't say I know how it would feel to have made this but, let me personally say this song means alot to me and thank you guys.
90s! Alto Shoegaze
MBV vibes ...
Best song Of This álbum. 🖤
great single.
Cover reminds me of Carnavas
completely, first thing I thought when I saw the thumbnail lol
this song has NO RIGHT going as hard as it does are you kidding!!!??? STAND DOWNNNN
It's never these songs you hear on the top 40 music channels or whatever. It just makes the band more special though :3
Heaviest song yet
Great song, very emotional and deep. Ever since Devin Ruben Perez (bass) left and was replaced by ex keyboardist Colin Caulfield, they played live without keyboards and they probably liked it that way.. Though I love their old sound, I appreciate the fact that they took a risk to change it.
They used to play without keyboards too before colin joined the band, so I don't think it's what made them go for this heavier sound
1:36 my fav verse
Loving this new album. This track has all of the feels of Slowdive, MBV, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned Starflyer 59. Quite the maturity expected from such incredible musicians.
New stuff sounding tight! MBV + Sonic Youth + Whirr, a great vibe
True Widow as well
Sounds awesome, so heavy. Can't wait for the new record.
The part from 2:51 - 3:04 is the best thing ever
Heavyyyy, love 🪑😏❤️
noise, loving it.
I love DIIv 😭🙏❤️
This hits hard
The new sound, this is good though I will miss the old sound of theirs.
what a song, shoegaze is back again yesss
not really....its just these guys and maybe 2 other Brooklyn bands
@@gravity5965 do u think the world needs more shoegaze ?
@@joshorange3087 how about, stop 'bringing things back' and actually create original new rock subgenres? No hate towards this band, they're not bad. But their sound is nothing new. All I hear is a new generation of bands looping the prime years of alternative rock, which were the 90s imo. No wonder rap and electronic music are far beyond rock's popularity nowadays. Sounds like they're artificially keeping something alive which is maybe better off dead. The zombie that is Nu-gaze is taking in precious limited resources which could be used for beautiful new things to grow.
Good job DIIV
About two minutes in and I can already hear the growth from the past two records . While not as immediately rewarding as skin game, you can tell they are getting better at their ability to create different moods with their songs . They have tended to be more one dimensional in the past , being that their songs were mostly inter changeable with the next, all sounding somewhat the same. Is the is are was not as one dimensional as it’s predecessor, and judging from the first two singles, this record will be another step in the right direction. I’m digging it !
The growth was immidately noticeable from Skin Game's release because they were actually writing choruses where as on Is The Is Are it's mostly just verse after verse much like mbv. I love the old stuff, Is The Is Are is still my favorite, but I love the heavy new direction they're heading as that's my preferred style of shoegaze.
I love this song so much
cool song, incredible artwork
damn it's been a year, I used to listen to this nonstop when they released it.
This is a really good song.
Just discovered. Wow
So excited for this new album...
obrigado por isso.
Magic and loss
This is a great song. It's like MBV meets
Slowdive meets Modest Mouse
this hits the spot
Aight , ima diiv in the water
diiv never disappoints
Considering that the first two albums had a Neu!-Smiths-Cure vibe, and for the guitar sounds in this track, I guess they're now going full Dinosaur Jr.-Sonic Youth-Bloody Valentine mode instead. Not a complaint at all.
Neuf?
@@recteen *Neu! My bad lol
Neu!- Smiths- Cure, perfect comparison!
Gustavo Alfaro and a bit of the post rock of Mogwai ..Ride influences still abide though on their sound.
Rob Elder and joy division somewhere in between for their "Oshin" record
Batman 🦇
Sounds fantastic...
3:19 best part
DIIV got tha edge now
Surprised nobody called it yet, but this totally a Starflyer 59 rip
im a year late but ur so spot on wow
Still very DIIV, but moving in a new direction. Love this tune
Love this guys! Thank you obrigado!
Beautiful. Thank you so much DIIV😍
Already sounds way better than the past albums
Definitely not.
*chills*
diiv keeps getting better
Damn this sounds so good!
DIIV live in Portugal in March. 19th @ Hard Club in Porto and 20th @ Lisboa ao Vivo in Lisbon
my smashing valentine!
Hot song
Oh yes I like this one it’s got that shoegazing kind of feel to it
Just what we all wanted to hear
Everyone talks about Oshin.... what about Is The Is Are? They’re both insane albums.
@Chris Greene me too :( new album is nothing like Oshin.
Also, I think Is the is Are is weaker too. I guess something like Oshin will never happen again. It's too good
its addictive
Not your-typical-hipster-sound. This is good. More heavy than oshin etc
90's vibes
Good!
Love you guys ❤️🔥👏
i absolutely love this song, but i gotta say this riff is exactly Numb Hand by True Widow
So damn hyped for this album! Seeing them in Chicago 10/18. Bucket list concert for me!
10/4 will be the 3rd time I've seen them live. I'm pretty sure they'll be playing almost entirely new stuff we haven't heard before, but the first two times I've seen them were some of the best shows I've ever seen.
reminds me of unwounds last album somewhat, which is high high praise
This album is shaping up pretty fuckin' nicely if I do say so myself.
