DIIV - Geist [7"]

GEIST was the third single by DIIV (then still written as Dive) before they released their awesome debut full length Oshin. The Sometime and Human singles were basically just demos put to vinyl, but this song isn't. Sounds great and could've been featured on Oshin without any problem. B-side Bambi Slaughter is a cover from an old Nirvana demo track. Not surprisingly, because the band named themselves Dive - after a Nirvana song as well.

DIIV - Oshin [12", LP]

To me, this brilliant album OSHIN by DIIV (pronounced as "Dive") is the debut full length of 2012. For now at least, with just 3 more months to go. I just love it. A great mix of krautrock, shoegaze, dreampop and postpunk. Definitely a band to keep track of.
