Diamond Rings

I know this is probably not “new” to all you indie insiders but I’ve been listening to only Dolly Parton and Destiny’s Child for the past six months so obvs I totally missed Diamond Rings’ arrival — so “new” being relative, here is Diamond Rings. The videos are queer, like Gaga on a budget, but the music is where the heart is at — like Julie Ruin for a new decade. Hopefully sensitive is in for the tens. Fingers crossed. So real.

Extra bonus points for nailing the goth-gay-jock look:

Even more psyched that he is opening for Robyn on her winter North American tour which means I get to see him when they blow through this one horse town.
