tunesday - dick diver's new tunes
The local lads and lass may err on the side of oddball, but that's precisely why we think they're tip-top.
Dick Diver don't do things like the rest of us. Take their new album, Melbourne, Florida, for instance: instead of recording their third LP in a good ol' studio, they opted for a rather more rustic location – an old tin shed in Victoria's Apollo Bay. And then there's the lyrical content. Forget about love, life and relationships; the Melbourne four-piece are much more interested in yarns about high school quiz nights, befuddled travellers, and she of the golden hot pants, Kylie Minogue.
The local lads and lass may err on the side of oddball, but that's precisely why we think they're tip-top – that, and the synth-laden, wonderfully poppy songs they put out. Melbourne, Florida is out on March 6th if you'd like to prepare for your next sing-a-long, but in the meantime, here's a little tunage to tide you over.
