denim and diamonds
Denim
and Diamonds is the musical outlet of Conglomco Media
Conglomeration. Formed in 2015, they have returned from a post-apocalyptic
future to warn us of our unavoidable demise. Their computers and synthesizers
appear to be constantly malfunctioning, but that is their intent.
Denim and Diamonds is the sound of broken technology. File under glitchpop,
error rock, or data...but don't blink, you might miss them!

Magic Recording Eye - guitar, organ and vocals

Reviews
Best Live Band - Denim and Diamonds
If you’ve seen the film Athens, Ga.—Inside/Out, which documented the club scene in the South’s hippest town in the early ’80s, or if you hung around now-defunct Albany hot spots like the Halfmoon Café at the end of that decade, you’re familiar with the variety of art-damaged, gleefully—almost maniacally—inclusive pop acts that once roamed the community centers, hippie coffee shops and impromptu performance spaces back in the pre-Nirvana, pre-grunge-purity days. Denim and Diamonds’ live show is a throwback—in the greatest sense of that word—to an era when bands would try anything to entertain themselves (and the audience, if they could). Imagine your younger brother and his Xbox-wizard friends drunk for the first time on cheap beer, dressed in your old marching band uniforms, playing songs inspired by your Suicide and Plastic Bertrand records into their laptops, then remixing the shit out of them there on the spot and performing interpretive dance to the results. You’re about halfway there.
