ZIRP! is the upcoming fifth studio album by DIIV, the Brooklyn shoegaze and indie-rock band made up of Zachary Cole Smith, Andrew Bailey, Colin Caulfield and Ben Newman. Set for release on October 30, 2026 via Fantasy Records (under exclusive license to Concord Label Group), the 11-track record is produced by A.G. Cook, the PC Music founder who first approached the sessions "Screamadelica-style" before pivoting to a live drums-first setup with minimal computer time.
The album was announced on August 6, 2026 alongside lead single "The Fountain", and has since been previewed by "Kid" (September 2026) and "Trillions" (October 2026). Coverage in The Guardian, Stereogum and SPIN has framed the record as a bright new chapter for the band, following 2024's Frog in Boiling Water. With the release date now days away, here is the full ZIRP! tracklist, release date and album details — plus more of our recent album coverage, from Fontaines D.C.'s Dopamine Chamber album and Chase & Status' Generic Everything album to The Snuts' Joy in Short Moments album.
