Developing and emerging from bits and pieces of scattered instrumental, this song crystalizes almost like the very mineral it’s named for, becoming a clear and resilient example of artistic acuity. A reference to Isabel Waidner’s book “We Are Made Of Diamond Stuff,” this track wraps up what could be interpreted as a loose thematic three-piece discussing age (“Chondromalacia Patella”), death (“Slow”), and decay and eventual merging with the earth (“Diamond Stuff”).
“You know how every 10 years or so they found some guy in Ireland or England who’s been left in the peat bog for 2,000 years? I was just thinking about what if that happens, in 5,000 years a mining company finds you.”
