Dive Exit – Diamonds Like Bricks Review

02/10/2013 by Tom Roden

When I published my review of Dive Exit‘s debut album ‘Langar’ on Monday, I deliberately refrained from going into explicit detail of the track ‘Diamonds Like Bricks’ as I knew that it would be exactly what many would expect from me. In the past, I’ve made no secret that the track is my favourite by the band and one of my favourite of all time. And because of this, I omitted it from the album review as I wanted to […]

Dive Exit – Langar Review

30/09/2013 by Tom Roden

Dive Exit‘s debut album was one that I had been eagerly anticipating for some time. From my first time hearing the band, I’ve been eager to hear more from them. There were no EP’s, so the world had to make do with the tracks the band had floating around on the internet. ‘Langar’ finally dropped in July, so I am – by my own admission – a little late with this review. But better late than never – as with […]

Picks Of The Week 12

13/01/2013 by Tom Roden

This week I’ve been on a more consistently ‘indie’ vibe than usual. So naturally, all of this week’s picks of the week are in the indie genre. I apologise for the lack of diversity, but I promise that next week’s selection will be more eclectic! 1. Under China – Auction For The Promise Club Genre: Indie Auction For The Promise Club are a great indie band from Cornwall that have a knack for creating a wonderful wall of indie sound that […]

Dive Exit – ‘Diamonds Like Bricks’ Exclusive Performance

20/10/2012 by Tom Roden

This week, Alternative-Rock outfit Dive Exit performed an exclusive acoustic rendition of their song ‘Diamonds Like Bricks’ for me. The rendition was stunningly beautiful and, if you’ve never listened to the band before, this will provide a perfect starting point. Their demo version of the track (which you can listen to here) is also beautiful, but this version stands out because of its wondrous acoustic instrumentation. The band themselves noted that it was a “fun challenge” to create an acoustic […]

Introducing…Dive Exit

19/10/2012 by Tom Roden

They hail from Birmingham and have, in little over a year, progressed from being bedroom rockstars to a support act to performers like Missing Andy and Mini Mansions (the side project of Queens Of The Stone Age bassist Michael Shuman). Yes, Dive Exit are definitely a band on the rise: and it’s more than deserved. The band pride themselves on their ability to craft “very danceable music” for people to enjoy, while still “keeping true to their own style and […]
