"Out of Mind" opens the album with a glassy, fragile insistence reminiscent of Deerhunter, another band skilled in transforming ugly feelings and situations into beautiful songs. This indefinite quality makes Is the Is Are more interesting than a lot of more obvious soul-bearing, particularly on songs like the chiming "Healthy Moon," which suggests that catharsis doesn't have to be grim.

Reviews"The record as a whole is a listen that’s both inviting and challenging, and it seems like it’s one that’ll keep returning rewards for a long time.", "Smith’s vocals are finally allowed to peek over the fuzzy fractal spiderwebs of his and fellow guitarist Andrew Bailey’s lead work. And the void lurking behind these songs only seems more threatening now that its craggy edges are more clearly delineated.", "With soundscapes that are as expansive as they are immersive, DIIV brandish an immediately infectious brand of melodic dream pop, underpinned by pounding drums and the band’s signature guitar attack.", "These Are Some of the Most Powerful, Personal and Persuasive Rock Songs You’Ll Hear this Year."
