Synopsis

Product Description
King of the Beach, the new Wavves album is an adventurous and ambitious record. It cuts deeper into the bleeding throat zatharsis and '60s sunshine soul that Wavves is known for. It also unexpectedly flips out with elements of primitive electronics and psychedelic studio experimentation. Unlike Wavves' previously released material, recorded in I haphazard bursts on Williams' laptop, King of the Beach was toiled over for three months at Sweet Tea Recording, a world-renowned studio in Oxford, Mississippi. Sweet Tea is also the home of Dennis Herring, producer of the last two Modest Mouse albums, and the man who dismantled and re-assembled the sound on this record.

(4 out of 5 stars)

""King of the Beach" is like the Beach Boys, the Shins' "Oh, Inverted World" and Surfer Blood's debut album wrapped up into one highly addictive package. The Wavves early work consists of largely inaccessible (though definitely worth checking out) recordings free of any fancy production equipment. This album peels away the noisy layers and broadens the vision, allowing more of us humble listeners to participate in the ongoing dance of musical innovation."
