After garnering attention from the likes of Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Stereogum, and Spin, we're extremely excited to be welcoming Diet Cig to the family with their new 7" single, Sleep Talk / Dinner Date set to be co-released with our US idols Father/Daughter Records.
As well as putting out a 7" version of the single we've also decided to make it available as a tshirt with download code. Designed by Laurent Hrybyk and printed in Devon by Broadside Screenprinting.
While recalling the sound of speedy twee-pop groups like Tiger Trap and All Girl Summer Fun Band, the record explores "the innocence of adolescence and infatuation." "Sleep Talk" begins where smash hit EP Over Easy left off, with the candidly self-analytical statement, "I can't play instruments very well and I'll eat all of your cereal." While this line may feel lighthearted, the narrative quickly grows complicated with the gentle admission, "If I told you I loved you I don't know who it would scare away faster." "Dinner Date" continues the theme of painful retrospection and vulnerability as Luciano examines familial disappointment. Both songs offer a more complex level of intimacy and prove that Diet Cig are here to stay.
