DIIV - LIVE AT THE MURMRR THEATRE VINYL (SUPER LTD. 'RECORD STORE DAY' ED. ECO)

SUPER LIMITED 'RECORD STORE DAY' EDITION ECO VINYL

Release Date: 22nd April 2023

"In 2017, DIIV took the stage at Brooklyn’s Murmrr Theatre for a special, on-off, “unplugged” performance. Now, the band shares a compilation of those live recordings. Includes unique arrange- ments of tracks from the band’s first two albums - Oshin and Is The Is Are - as well as covers of Alex G’s “Hollow” and My Bloody Valen- tine’s “When You Sleep”. Following the digital release in November 2022, the compilation is now available on vinyl for the first and only time, pressed on Eco vinyl - exclusive to Record Store Day 2023. “In August 2017 I was 5 months sober and DIIV hadn’t played a show in almost a year. Our friend Ric helped us set up an intimate acoustic show in a theater in our hometown of brooklyn. We deco- rated the stage with stuff from our houses and played our home videos on a tv. We invited our friends and family and played some songs from our first two albums and some other artists’ songs that felt important to us as a band. It felt like some kind of reset. We recorded the show and forgot about it for a bunch of years. We recently found the recordings and thought people might want to hear them. I think of it as a kind of official bootleg I guess. Our friend Jarvis mixed it and our friends Parker and Jim made the art. enjoy.” — Zachary Cole Smith "
