Dive is one of two spin-offs from Beach Fossils, one of Brooklyn's preeminent lazy-Sunday guitar bands. While Fossils bassist JohnPena's Heavenly Beat sounds low-key and tailor-made for cocktail hour, Dive, led by guitarist Zachary Cole Smith, is decidedly more guitar-driven.
In May of 2012, DIVE became DIIV. "DIVE becomes DIIV. Out of respect for Dirk Ivins and the original Dive, this former DIVE has renameditself. We've not been contacted by Dirk Ivins or his lawyers, but the short of it is that I don't really give a fuck what the band is called. Ioriginated this project in a bedroom with no internet and didn't know if it would ever leave the bedroom.

The band is the same, the music is the same, thefuture will always be the same. A name is nothing." « hide |
