]]> Deep Sea Diver “Billboard Heart” 2025. Sub Pop Records on “glacial blue” vinyl. Dreamy indie pop, Billboard Heart is the Seattle-based band’s fourth LP. Deep Sea Diver charted in the UK at #77 and its title track/lead single “Billboard Heart” went to #40 on the US Adult Alternative chart. The tracks “Shovel” and “Let Me Go” were also released as singles. Fronted by singer Jessica Dobson (solo plus performed with The Shins, Beck, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs among other indie/alt royalty), it’s on the upbeat not-too-ambient end of dream pop, with a few garage-leaning rockers like one of my top picks “Emergency” and the grunge-bridged loud-quiet-loud “Always Waving Goodbye.” Most of it, however, is synth-forward, accented by sometimes aggressive guitars while Dobson’s clear yet punk-inflected vocals soar above. It’s a nice listen but a bit too ambient for my tastes, at least today. Might be more of a summer evening listen.
