Video: DIIV, “Wait”

February 20, 2013


Photographer, partner to DIIV drummer Colby Hewitt and probable Rihanna inspiration Sandy Kim filmed "Wait" on Super 8 film and edited it while stoned. The quick-cut video's got its own bud, plus kaleidoscope boobs, street Mickeys, tongue kisses and crop tops. Cameos by Rookie photographer Petra Collins, Karley "Slutever" Sciortino and frontman Zachary Cole Smith's new sweetheart Sky Ferreira. Suiting the muddy song about waiting around for city love, the video accomplishes the considerable task of making New York look like a cozy place where you can hang out in soft T-shirts and panties and see your friends every day. DIIV are set to play Coachella in April and Bonnaroo in June; their album Oshin is out now on Captured Tracks. Watch Sandy Kim shoot a FADER fashion story at her apartment here and hear her talk about her wonderful photos of another beloved band, Girls, here.
