According to O'Regan, his Diamond Rings persona exists "to sort of smash that kind of tendency that I think we all have to sort of hide behind ourselves. And I think this record's probably, or definitely, my strongest statement that I've made to date."[1] He also says a big part of this album was "becoming more comfortable as a musician and a composer and an arranger", and "I felt like I really stepped up as a singer with this album, and I’m really proud of that.”[2] O'Regan has stated that this album is more polished than Special Affections, but "I didn’t really change my approach lyrically or emotionally. I feel like they’re still conveying the same message, but just coated in a way that has a few more layers of gloss. It’s like we spent a two more hours waxing the car."[3] He attributes the album's heavier dance orientation to his unique recording set-up: "I had a sit-down desk and I got rid of it cause I started working all day on these songs and I started feeling really sluggish, like I was a banker or something. So I got rid of the desk, put my computer up, and started recording like that. And it just all has a more dance-ready feel because I was dancing when I was making it!"[4] O'Regan has compared Special Affections to Free Dimensional: "The old album is more introspective, whereas Free Dimensional seems outrospective. It's got all this energy coming out of it."[5] Track listing{{Album ratings| rev1 = Allmusic | rev1Score = {{rating|4|5}}[6] | rev2 = Exclaim.ca | rev2Score = (8/10)[7] | rev3 = PopMatters | rev3Score = {{rating|7|10}}[8] | rev4 = Pitchfork Media | rev4Score = (5.8/10)[9] | rev5 = Tiny Mix Tapes | rev5Score = {{rating|4|5}}[10] | rev6 = Toronto Star | rev6Score = {{rating|3|4}}[11] }}{{tracklist | title1 = Everything Speaks | length1 = 3:17 | title2 = All The Time | length2 = 3:20 | title3 = Runaway Love | length3 = 4:50 | title4 = Put Me On | length4 = 5:12 | title5 = I'm Just Me | length5 = 4:35 | title6 = Hand Over My Heart | length6 = 4:40 | title7 = (I Know) What I'm Made Of | length7 = 3:46 | title8 = A To Z | length8 = 4:00 | title9 = Stand My Ground | length9 = 4:00 | title10 = Day & Night | length10 = 3:49 }} References1. ^http://www.spinner.ca/2012/11/22/diamond-rings-modesty/ {{2010s-indie-pop-album-stub}}2. ^http://www.nextmagazine.com/content/man-aubergine-mask 3. ^http://www.mtvhive.com/2012/10/25/diamond-rings-free-dimensional-interview/ 4. ^http://www.mtvhive.com/2012/10/25/diamond-rings-free-dimensional-interview/ 5. ^http://ionmagazine.ca/music/profiles/diamond-rings 6. ^[{{Allmusic|class=album|id=special-affections-mw0002409690|pure_url=yes}} Allmusic review] 7. ^Exclaim.ca review 8. ^PopMatters review 9. ^Pitchfork review 10. ^Tiny Mix Tapes review 11. ^[https://www.thestar.com/entertainment/music/cd%20review/article/1275677--diamond-rings-gets-bigger-and-bolder-kurt-elling-does-terrific-tribute-album-reviews Toronto Star review] 2 : 2012 albums|Diamond Rings (musician) albums |
