RACHELYN REMZ-PORTER and Alice Barlow do a short Q&A with DIIV at SXSW, with a little help from INSTAX!
Ever since Freaks and Geeks, we've had a thing for adorable little weirdos––and The Adorable Little Weirdos should really be the name of the New York-based band DIIV. Oh wait scratch that, we're totes gonna use that name for our own band, in which Rachel will play guitar, and Alice will play the tambourine because she's "special." But anyways. Because of our F&G fetish, we were super hyped to catch up with guitarist/singer Zachary Cole Smith (even his name is adorably weird!), guitarist Andrew Bailey, bassist Devin Ruben Perez, and drummer Colby Hewitt recently to ask them seven of the random-est questions in all the land.
What's your desert island disc?
Cole: Desert Shore by Nico
Bailey: Kind of Blue by Miles Davis
Devin: Metal Machine Music by Lou Reed (so I could kill myself faster).
What's your spirit instrument?
Cole: A hammer
Bailey: A saxophone
Devin: The therimin
What is your spirit animal?
Cole: Raccoon
Bailey: Bobcat
Devin: White tiger
Dream concert lineup?
Cole: Dead
Bailey: Nirvana and us would be pretty cool
Devin: I'd have to say Prince and The Revolution.
Who would write the intro to your autobiography?
Cole: Grant Singer
Bailey: My father
Devin: Cyborg Legs McNeil
Who's your favorite villain?
Cole: Grant Singer
Bailey: I don't know... the dude from Unbreakable.
Devin: Whoever it is that shot Bambi's mom.
Tell me a joke...
