"Blankenship" is a standalone single that captures DIIV at a moment of hard-won clarity, trading some of their signature hazy textures for a more direct, propulsive energy. It arrived after their 2016 LP 'Is the Is Are'.
- The single was produced by Al Carlson, who also helmed the band's 2012 debut 'Oshin'.
- "Blankenship" was DIIV's first new music in three years, following their 2016 album 'Is the Is Are'.
- The single was released on Captured Tracks, the same label that has put out all of DIIV's previous full-length albums.
DIIV is an indie rock band from Brooklyn, known for their shimmering, reverb-drenched guitar sound. "Blankenship" arrived as the band was solidifying their sound after personnel changes and a period of intense personal struggle for frontman Zachary Cole Smith.
