Tolle Band!
New York City's The Diggs are a three piece formed in the Fall of 2003 that played their first show in May of 2004. The Diggs blend 90's indie rock and Britpop with a touch of shoegaze. Their sound combines huge crashing crescendo/decrescendo walls with anthemic and emotive vocals. As The Diggs’ main songwriter Timothy Lannen unabashedly puts it, "Our ambition since day one has been to be an amazing live band and to make the best records."
The Diggs have the songs to substantiate their initiative. From the dream pop of “It’s Just Like You Say” and “Trouble Everyday,” to the cathartic “Stagg,” to the swirling “Everyone’s Starting Over,” The Diggs’ cogency is undeniable.
The Diggs released their debut LP Commute in the U.S. in December 2005 on Sugarspun Records, a small New York City based label recently started by two of The Diggs’ closest friends, Brian Berger and John Darcy. The 9 songs on Commute share the recurrent theme of the expurgation of disillusionment. The record was warmly received in New York where The Diggs have shared bills with Annuals, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Dirty on Purpose, Amusement Parks on Fire, Field Music, I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness, and Midlake. The record is currently distributed by Fabtone Records in Japan and will be released digitally through iTunes Germany in January 2007.
