Shoegaze torchbearers previewed forthcoming LP ZIRP! at hazy homecoming show in Brooklyn
New York-bred shoegaze torchbearers DIIV returned home for a hazy, atmospheric performance at The Meadows in Brooklyn. Bathed in gorgeous, moody lighting worthy of their enveloping wall of sound, the band offered fans an early glimpse of several tracks from their forthcoming album ZIRP!, produced by A. G. Cook, while weaving in favorites from across their acclaimed catalog. The intimate hometown setting provided a fitting backdrop for a band that continues to push the boundaries of contemporary shoegaze while remaining unmistakably DIIV. Earlier, up-and-coming noise rock locals Voyeur played an incendiary opening set of their own. Scroll through the gallery below for highlights from the night.
