DIIV - Oshin - 10th Anniversary - Blue Marble (W/Book) [LP] Vinyl Record

On June 26 2012, DIIV released their seminal debut record, Oshin. Thealbum received critical acclaim from Pitchfork granting it "Best New Music," NME ranked it in the Top 10 among it's "Albums of the Year," and itpositioned DIIV as a central influence on the sound and aesthetic of the2010s Brooklyn indie music scene.Beginning in 2011 as the nom-de-plume of Z. Cole Smith, musical provocateur and frontman of the atmospheric and autumnally-charged fourpiece, DIIV created instant vibrations in the blog-world with their impressionistic debut single "Sometime." DIIV craft a sound that is at oncefamilial and frost-bitten. Indebted to classic kraut, dreamy Creationrecords psychedelia, and the primitive-crunch of late-80s Seattle, theband walk a divisive yet perfectly fused patch of classic-undergroundinfluence on their debut LP. To commemorate the 10th anniversary, this limited edition 2xLP combines the Oshin tracklist with the original Oshin demos recorded bySmith, and two live cuts recorded at storied Brooklyn DIY venue SheaStadium - including the never before released "Yuk".The expansive packaging includes a craft paper die-cut widespinehoused in a clear printed PVC sleeve, vinyl pressed on blue marble (tocommemorate the very first limited edition pressing of Oshin on Captured Tracks), a DIIV "Fuck The World" poster, and a retrospective bookletwith archival photos, reflections from each bandmember, new writingfrom the original "Oshin" poet, Madeline Jones, and exanded liners byShaad D'Souza.
