DIIV release final album preview, “Raining On Your Pillow”
DIIV have released “Raining On Your Pillow,” as the final single to be taken from their forthcoming new album, Frog in Boiling Water.
Of the song, the band says: “‘Raining on Your Pillow’ is a song which brings to mind the shameful past (and present) of American imperialism. Lost in a terrifying landscape, a lone soldier ruminates on the existence of a landscape of his own far removed from conflict. Does it matter if this place is real or not? Is a false sense of hope enough to give our lives meaning in the midst of despair? A looping guitar figure plays underneath a driving rhythm in a cloud of murky atmosphere of analog synths and tape loops. Menacing, doomed, and strangely hopeful.”
"Raining On Your Pillow" follows previous singles, "Frog In Boiling Water", “Brown Paper Bag", “Soul-Net” and “Everyone Out".
For the final instalment of the Frog In Boiling Water album release, DIIV has created a conceptual film in the guise of a music video for the single “Raining on Your Pillow.” The band collaborated with experimental film directing team, TRLLM (Jak Ritger & K8 Howl) and fine artist, Harry Gould Harvey IV. Together, the group translated the songs themes of military desertion, desire for solace and challenging one’s ideology into an abstract collage of high-speed videography and hand-drawings.
Frog in Boiling Water is set for release on 24 May via Fantasy Records, and is available to pre-order now.
