Says Hello, Wavves Goodbye

Things move quickly in the twin towns of Hipsterville and Blogsburg. From being the darling, the future, the cutting edge to the gleeful reporting of an onstage breakdown and a general pooh-poohing of his work, Wavves has been gobbled up and spat out faster than Black Kids.

Except Wavves has turned the tables.

Realising that no matter how good your 2 minute lo-fi, fuzzed up, garage rock tracks are, you're always gonna run out of scope to make music that sounds fresh, that doesn't retread old ground.

Whether this is a genuine new direction or a riposte to blogs that only praise bands in the Animal Collective - TV On The Radio axis by creating a track that is a pastiche of that kind of music remains to be known.

What we do know is that Wavves has just released one of his best tracks.
