Pretty Much Amazing Best 2012 on Divine Fits
14 days ago#38 A Thing Called Divine Fits
Buzz Bands LA on Divine Fits
about 1 month agoWho: Divine Fits at the Outdoor Theatre In 3 or Fewer Words: Spoon, fork and knife. Memorable Because: "We're called Divine Fits. This is not a beautiful day," Britt Daniel said, wilting in the oppressive late-afternoon sun in Indio. Well, now, that depends. Because the songs from "A Thing Called Divine Fits," lock-jawed, feral and tighter than your Coachella wristband, seemed a perfect palate-pleaser considering the mashed-potatoes folk that would follow on this stage from Of Monsters and Men. Daniel's project with Dan Boeckner (Wolf Parade/Handsome Furs) and Sam Brown (New more here
Spinner Best of 2012 on Divine Fits

4 months agoDivine Fits A Thing Called Divine Fits [Merge Records]
Britt Daniel, Dan Boeckner, and Sam Brown are all successful seasoned musicians in their own right. The formation of super group Divine Fits sparked intrigue and stirred up speculation about whether a band could be more than the sum of its talent. Speculation ends with the release of the band’s debut album appropriately titled A Thing Called Divine Fits. The verdict? Just short of divine.
The eleven track album is equal parts Spoon frontman Daniel as it is Wolf Parade/Handsome Furs contributor Boeckner, who each take turns in the lead vocal role throughout. With two such distinct vocalists, this division of labor plays tricks on your ears and can bias the way the listener hears the song – for instance with “Would That Not Be Nice,” Daniel’s vocals paired with the musical arrangement can con you into thinking that you’re listening to Spoon’s latest single. By that same token however, what A Thing Called Divine Fits does have is an eclectic aesthetic from new wave revival (“Baby Get Worse” and “The Salton Sea”), to the stripped down (“Civilian Stripes”), to an updated version of Boys Next Door‘s “Shivers.”
Daniel, Boeckner, and Brown’s first effort together will likely be a feisty contender for a spot on many Best of 2012 lists this year. Each of the tracks on the album could solidly and confidently stand alone as a hit single, but the tracks’ distinction leads to an album whose aftertaste lacks cohesion — and that lack of cohesion is what holds A Thing Called Divine Fits back from greatness.

7 months agoBritt Daniel (Spoon), Dan Boeckner (Wolf Parade) and Sam Brown (New Bomb Turk) have been hinting at their new supergroup Divine Fits for a while now, and their respective fans have especially been on the edge of the seats since a snippet of "My Love Is Real" was heard in a teaser video posted back in May. The driving synth-pop tune can now be heard in its entirety and a 7-inch single (with "I Was Born in a Laundromat" as the B-side) will be available July 31 via Merge Records. They're based in L.A. for now more here
