The band, comprised of Tim Lannen (vocals/guitar), Rob Haussmann (bass) and Charlie Schmid (drums), stands solid on this 3 song teaser that has had many begging for more. In this city rife with awkward hairdos, ironic t-shirts, and acts claiming to be the next big thing, I can’t wait to be there when The Diggs have the last laugh. Drawing on all sorts of early 90’s indie-rock influences including Superchunk, The Diggs have the sound we’ve been waiting for. Just try listening to the masterfully crafted “Trouble Everyday” without finding yourself falling headfirst into nostalgic traps while your head nods along. I couldn’t possibly give it all away; I’d be robbing you of discovery. Just know that this December the band releases it’s first full length and thank me later; I’ll even let you buy me a drink.” -- The Deli Magazine, Issue #5 volume #2; winter 2006; page 38
